Copper Shell has dropped a long way in the ratings and has the ability to win a race of this nature and is taken to get the better of Gypsy Geoff and Politburo. Any softening in the ground will count against the latter, who needs to prove his fast ground win last time was not just a flash-in-the-pan return to form. Sigma Run has an outside chance at best.
