Forecasts

Klopp of The Kop (9/4), Medicine Jack (3/1), Elusive Heights (5/1), Hope Probe (6/1), Donnelly's Rainbow (13/2), Bibbidibobbidiboo (16/1), Lincoln Gamble (20/1), Young John (33/1), Vintage Polly (66/1), The Mackem Missile (66/1), Walter (80/1), Make A Spark (100/1)

HOPE PROBE has generally held his form well this term so he's fancied to double his tally now returning to claiming company. Klopp of The Kop has a wide draw to contend with but nevertheless is respected in his follow-up bid, with Donnelly’s Rainbow another to consider having fared best of those ridden prominently in a C&D handicap last month.
