Smooth traveller that's made a good impression over fences to date, although a mistake late in the day sealed his fate at Taunton last time. Small field here may not be ideal but a chance to make all if they so wish.
Looks like making up into a better chaser than hurdler based on his first effort at Ascot in November, looked the winner but faded late. Not seen since but that's not an issue, and should have more to come.
Jumped poorly when second to Cyrname at Kempton yesterday and never looked liek landing a glove on the winner. Unlikely to run here after those exertions but even if he does, he needs to jump much better.
Forecasts
Copain De Classe (4/6), Space Oddity (6/5), The Unit (5/4)
Assuming The Unit doesn't reappear after racing at Kempton yesterday, this will be a match race. There's not much between Space Oddity and COPAIN DE CLAISSE on paper but the latter has a bit more scope for fences and can build on a promising first effort at Ascot, where he looked the winner for much of the latter stages.
- Copain De Classe
- Space Oddity
- The Unit
