Klopp (6/4), Mutabaahy (3/1), Foxy Forever (11/2), Dynamo Walt (8/1), Militia (12/1), Nibras Again (14/1), Good Luck Fox (20/1), Royal Brave (33/1)
A tricky contest in which the waters are muddied by the presence of multiple runners from various stables. The 'sprint-king' Paul Midgley is responsible for Militia (unexposed on the AW), the attractively weighted Nibras Again and the far less appealing Good Luck Fox (ex-Richard Hannon). However, with the Antony Brittain string in fine form we'll elect to stick with the versatile KLOPP over the Wolverhampton specialist Mutabaahy. The selection is a likeable filly who continues to climb in the weights, hence the application of first-time cheekpieces in order to eke out any remaining traces of further improvement.
