Laddie Cooper Mia (9/4), So Many Roads (11/4), Forest Blaze (7/2), Fostered Phil (9/1), Flying Sandpiper (9/1), Rock N Roll Champ (12/1), Love That (18/1), Beat The Retreat (20/1)

LADDIE COOPER MIA looked ahead of her mark for most of the way starting out for this yard at Sedgefield on return and is of strong interest here. Rock N Roll Champ is becoming well handicapped, while So Many Roads should come on for his return.
