Cottersrock should go close to landing this if in the same mood as when easily winning a handicap at Kempton last month. But WOTZIZNAME (NAP) could not have been more impressive when making a winning start under Rules at Exeter ahead of a couple of previous winners and has the greater scope for improvement. Kit Casey's Chepstow victory is working out well with the second and third having won since but Holbrook Park has more than his plate than when winning at Warwick. Buckskin Boulta only won a conditionals' maiden here last month but the runner-up franked the form at Warwick on Monday so the form looks better now than it did at the time.
