HERE COMES MCCOY has been given a bit of time since pulling up at Lingfield in January on his final start for Olly Murphy. His chase form prior to that had been progressive and he's taken to bounce back with a bang and deny Law of Gold a second win in this race. Jeffery's Cross, a recent Ludlow winner, and Norton Hill complete the shortlist.
