    Verdict

    La Grande Villez gets the confident vote here with Presenting Copper and Strawberry rating the main dangers. The selection won well last time out when beating Burntoakboy and although having a penalty for that win he looks sure to improve again and he will be hard to beat . Presenting Copper was a fair third behind Theatre Girl in a hurdle last time. He looks sure to make a better chaser and with his yard in form he should be watched in the market. Strawberry is another that could go well on his best form but he has yet to win over a trip this far and he looks opposable on that basis. Of the others Harringay could go well if her breathing holds out but that is a big if while Miss Mitch and Ice Cream need to improve on recent efforts to trouble the selection La Grande Villez.
