Mister Dick has won over fences but recent efforts have left much to be desired. Cosmic Statesman is probably the one to beat on his latest second at Plumpton but is now 0-26 so hardly a reliable proposition. THEPREMIERBROKER didn’t settle on his handicap debut at Carlisle and was soon beaten. But he should be capable of better than that and the booking of the champion jockey is a positive sign. Recent evidence suggests Rockchasebullett is not the force of old.
