Verdict

Copy Print was a 66/1 chance on his debut at Punchestown in June but belied those odds with a very encouraging effort and has plenty more to offer. See Me Here made his debut at Gowran a year ago and was only beaten a length so the lack of a recent run shouldn't be a problem. ICE COLD SOUL made his debut between the flags at Belclare in March and started odds-on. He had no problems running out a comfortable winner and has a very smart pedigree so can make a successful start under Rules. Sliaibin ran well in a strong bumper at Listowel last month and could prove best of the remainder.
