LORD COOPER is penalised for last week’s win at Kempton but an apprentice’s allowance negates most of that. He should confirm running with fourth-placed Jet Setter and make another bold bid. Scotch Myst won at Southwell last month and seems best at that track given he was behind Bismarck The Flyer here when the latter finished third. Trick Of The Lyte is not badly weighted on last year’s success at Catterick but Bourbonisto has not raced since placed at Newcastle in November.
