The four-year-old MISTER DICK, successful on his chasing bow at Stratford, can end the winning run of likely favourite Innocent Girl. She had to be ridden right out to land the odds in a hurdle at Towcester last week off a 7lb lower mark and may find this coming too soon. Accessallareas defied market expectations when second at Hereford last week and has dropped 2lb since so must be a danger while Perfect Timing was only beaten a head last time at Perth.
