Forecasts

Choose A Copper (2/5), You Some Girl (15/2), One Step Up (11/1), Carrigeen Kali (16/1), V Twelve (16/1), Endofconversation (18/1), All Ways And Ever (25/1), Line In The Sand (28/1), Rich Spirit (80/1), Knacker Trapper (100/1)

Verdict

This trip will probably be on the sharp side for CHOOSE A COPPER given his breeding but this isn't a deep race and this £95,000 point recruit looks the way to go. V Twelve should have more to offer as a hurdler this season and is feared most.

  1. CHOOSE A COPPER (IRE)
  2. V TWELVE (IRE)
  3. YOU SOME GIRL (IRE)
