A few of these may have been happier on the chase course. One of those is Stop The World and he has also changed stables since last seen. Copper Coin and Domaine De L'isle won over fences at Huntingdon and Kempton respectively last month and are preferred but the ground has come right for THE BULL MCCABE and an absence since November is not a concern for Kim Bailey’s lightly-raced seven-year-old, who has already proved he can run well fresh. Linelee King reverts to novice company having finished second in a Southwell handicap latest and can’t be ignored.
