Race preview
First-time cheekpieces seemed to do the trick for COOPER'S CROSS last time out, when landing the Sky Bet Chase at this track over 3m in January. He retains the headgear and can put in another bold showing now 5lb higher. Castle Robin took a big step forward when securing a win over 3m at Sandown last month and is feared most ahead of Does He Know, who has to shoulder top-weight.
