Verdict

Plenty arrive with claims and it could just be worth chancing last year's winner COPPER KNIGHT. He's not been at his very best so far this campaign but the handicapper has afforded him a chance and a bold showing would come as no surprise from a handy draw. Vintage Clarets is a big danger, whilst Absolutelyflawless can't be discounted with a good pace to aim at sure to suit.
