William Hill Ripon Horn Blower Conditions Stakes (Plus 10)

Simmy's Copshop is a useful yardstick in this judged by his efforts in better company lately. He faces less exposed rivals here who both made all to score last time. Alkhalifa and the runner-up pulled clear last time and he showed great tenacity to keep his head in front. That attitude will bring further success but LAKE VOLTA looked an above average colt at Brighton. He was backed from 3/1 to 4/6 that day and made short work of some fair horses. That suggests he could be a 90+ horse and that would make him good enough to take this.
