Verdict
Copperless has undergone a wind operation since placing in a bumper last year and debuts over hurdles along with Universal Folly. Argent Et Or went close in a maiden hurdle at Sligo last summer and is fitted with a tongue-tie on his debut for new connections but STONER’S CHOICE makes more appeal. The latter still managed to finish runner-up over track and trip on his hurdling bow despite a less than fluent display of jumping but will know more today and Fergal O’Brien’s yard remains in fine form.
