Raised 7lb for her Warwick success but she's an improving mare by the looks

Good and bad last season over fences; too talented to ignore on this return to hurdling

Struggled the last twice despite having his sights lowered; at least unexposed at 3m

Latest 2m4f effort wasn't too shoddy but well beaten on his only previous run at 3m

Having badly lost his way, the signs were a tad more encouraging over 2m4f here last time
9	Copper Coin Chestnut J:Beau Morgan(5) T:Michael Scudamore	J:Beau Morgan(5) T:Michael Scudamore	159	—	52439-	126	137	99	31d	—	—	+17	24.8	10/1 9%
Not taken a lot of racing in recent seasons and seems to have lost his spark
10	Champagnesuperover Bay J:Sean Bowen T:Olly Murphy	J:Sean Bowen T:Olly Murphy	156	t	/14/4-	123	132	100	23d	—	—	+13	20.4	12/1 8%
Unlucky not to be closer on his encouraging return from a long absence at Perth

He is a C&D winner back on a good mark but there are doubts right now

In cracking form when last seen but he's been a long time absent
