Verdict

Terrible opener. BISHOP'S CHOICE (1) is on top by default after the favourite comes out. Safely held here fresh then ran an improved distant second last time here behind Belle Montagne, beating some of these. Fitter and extra trip a plus. STOOPS (7) has more upside than most and will strip fitter for a fresh-up fourth in the same race as Bishop's Choice. Can give a sight with the light weight. COPPERFLANGE (6) split that pair in the same race and finished third. Races on speed and looks one of the main hopes. BREAK THE LINE (2) has a better draw and can improve sharply. IT'S A SOLID DEEL (3) might need further but will be winding up late.
