MUSICAL SLAVE's frailties have long been documented but he scored in similar company from a higher mark at Exeter last year and he may be worth chancing after a mildly more encouraging display at Ludlow last time. Copperhead has been holding his form well from this kind of mark this season and can give another good account, whilst out-and-out stayer Highland Hunter is also respected having been keeping better company for most of the season.
