Coppertop showed her first sign of ability when staying on over 7f at Gowran and there's more to come. You Got Heart showed promise at Dundalk last season and made a nice return to that surface when runner-up last month. She would be a threat if able to reproduce that run on Turf. Dark Danger ran in decent company in her first campaign and caught the eye on her reappearance behind today's rival SHARP AND SMART at Tipperary. The winner was making his handicap debut that day and has been handed a 10lb rise but he attracted strong support and should be good enough to defy the extra weight.
