Forecasts

Tilsitt (85/40), Klopp of The Kop (5/2), Equidae (10/3), King Of Tonga (10/3), Tanasoq (5/1), Zoravan (6/1)

KLOPP OF THE KOP was all out when taking advantage of a drop in the weights to get off the mark over this C&D last time but the first 2 had the rest fairly strung out in behind so David O'Meara's charge is taken to follow up. His stablemate King of Tonga is feared most ahead of Tilsitt.
