Verdict

Riddlestown enjoys himself here and if you can forgive a poor effort last time out, has a chance of making it win number five at the track, but preference is for COPPERFACEJACK, who is pretty consistent and has already won for Richard Johnson. With ideal conditions, he can score again. Mahler Lad wouldn't be out of this if he can handle the likely quicker ground.
