Kevin Manning has chosen Mimicking of Jim Bolger's pair and she's respected though her dam scored over a mile as a juvenile. Hoppala's dam was a prolific winner from 6f upwards and he's likely to be forward enough, though the vote goes to WATERLOO BRIDGE. He's by the first-season stallion Zoffany and cost 350,000gns as a yearling and is a half-brother to three winners. Fisherman's Blues, also a half-brother to three winners, may prove best of the remainder.
