COPPER KAY should be another for the champion jockey as her third to La Bague Au Roi at Newbury last time is form that is head and shoulders above that of her rivals, though she will have to prove she stays this far. Grace Tara is likely to be the one that cashes in should the selection’s stamina give out as she won over 2m3f in the mud at Lingfield on her hurdles bow and stayed 3m between the flags. Queens Present was disappointing here last time so has something to prove but ex-pointers Robin Deuz Pois and Wishicould are worth a market check.
