Verdict

Mad Jack Mytton could have a say here, but there are several who will rightly feel they can stake a claim, with Jarlath, Lord Bryan and Somewhere To Be among them. However, COPPER WEST has been given a chance by the assessor and with conditions to suit, he can break his chasing duck.

  2. Lord Bryan
  3. Mad Jack Mytton
