Verdict
COPPER KAY was a smart performer in bumpers, winning a Listed race at Cheltenham a little under a year ago. She appears to be faced with a straightforward task here against only three rivals. Miss Fleming was disappointing after winning a bumper over 1m6f at Warwick in November and What A Diva was beaten a long way on her hurdles bow at the same course last month. Jump And Jump has yet to show in the way of ability.
