Verdict

Very few races are as competitive as the Coral Cup year on year and it's another wide-open renewal. Bleu Berry won the race last year and he's been overlooked by Ruby Walsh in favour of Uradel who appeals as a well-handicapped type. However, preference is for TULLY EAST who goes well at his course. The son of Shantou hasn't been at his best over two miles in recent starts but he's on a nice mark as a result and will relish this step up in trip. Bold Plan can go well if he gets in the race (first reserve) after the form of his latest run was franked in emphatic fashion by the runner-up and the five-year-old is less exposed than most in here.
