Verdict
Klopp has been threatening over 6f recently and won off a similar mark here at this time last year. Jeffrey Harris missed out on a hat-trick last time when only fifth but an apprentice is back on board today. He beat Everkyllachy here in November and the latter has subsequently gone close at Wolverhampton. Tabaahy ran below par at Southwell last time though is capable of better but LEO MINOR has switched yards since beaten a neck over course and distance in October and David Griffiths’ new charge may prove good enough having slipped 20lb down the handicap since the start of last season.
