Forecasts

Pickanumber (5/6), Copper Cove (11/10), Schelem (18/1), Grooveur (80/1)

Verdict

The profiles of COPPER COVE and Pickanumber are not dissimilar and, unless Schelem leaves his British debut effort a long way behind back from a 15-month absence, it's likely that they will have the finish between them. There's not much in it, with marginal preference for Copper Cove, who has quickly struck up a good relationship with conditional Benjamin Macey and appears to be on an upward curve.
