Copperfacejack just can’t get his head in front and has gone up another 6lb since his latest second at Huntingdon. Veauce De Sivola was no match for The Last Bridge on similar terms here in March, though the latter has been beaten twice since and is a hard ride. Mister Dick was a long way behind The Last Bridge at Stratford and the 11-year-old Supapowers has yet to win under Rules. TRIPTICO was keeping on over 2m5f at Ffos Las last time so might enjoy a return to 3m and Harry Cobden is a good jockey booking in a race like this.
