Forecasts

Coopers Square (3/1), Troika Steppes (5/1), Kiwi Myth (13/2), Heluvagood (13/2), Big Time Frank (7/1), Cap Horner (12/1), Touch Screen (16/1), Sartorial Elegance (16/1), Midnight Magic (16/1), Dont Be Robin (20/1), Over The Arch (20/1), Tactical Manoeuvre (25/1), Water Wagtail (33/1), How's My Friend (33/1)

Verdict

Very few in his that have solid profile and quite a few that backers will find hard to trust. Big Time Frank is probably the biggest enigma in the race having thrown away a winning chance on his penultimate run here, Kiwi Myth taking advantage. Sartorial Elegance, Cap Horner and Touch Screen all have a chance of sorts but the trio also have question marks against them on various scores. A better display from Heluvagood can’t be ruled out especially on this sounder surface but in the end all roads lead back to COOPERS SQUARE. His jumping has some flaws but he usually manages to overcome those and his fifth win of the season is within reach.
  1. Coopers Square
  2. Heluvagood
  3. Kiwi Myth
