Description

Coppleson is a lightly-raced 4yo son of Rip Van Winkle who was competitive at stakes level as a 3yo, recording the fastest L200m of the Group 2 Tulloch Stakes in the autumn. He was an impressive winner of his first 2 starts before running an encouraging 4th behind subsequent Group winners White Marlin and Manzoice.

Now rated 60 and Class 2 eligible, he'll give his new owners every chance of a quick return.

Coppleson was turned out to a paddock the day after his last run at Ipswich (Oct 11), the same day the enclosed footage/photos were captured.
