Kopeck De Mee is noted as being bought yesterday by JP McManus. His top RPR is 119 (Hurdles). RPRs for French racing tend to be very conservative and his French ratings has risen a fair bit in three runs to 68 which translates to 150.

I don't think the UK handicapper translates literally by a factor of 2.2 (lbs per kilo), more like 2 so I reckon KDM will have a handicap rating of about 136.

(Now with WPM.)
