In common with the remainder, Klopp of The Kop got nowhere near Mum’s Tipple when third at York last month but that is still arguably the best form on offer and the same trainer/jockey combination won this 12 months ago. Cosmic Power has found only one too good in both starts and holds Rapidash on Salisbury running. Amarillo Star was fourth over 5f here on debut when running green but that was back in May. Mrs Merton is a likely improver but William Haggas has booked Ryan Moore for his Cable Bay colt BENGAL BAY and this half-brother to two winners might well be good enough on debut.
