Verdict
Klopp is now 10lb higher than when scoring over the minimum trip at Newcastle in January and Thegreyvtrain also has something to prove off his current mark having placed on numerous occasions since last winning. George Thomas won a lower grade sprint over track and trip in December and so did Roundabout Magic, who has recent outing under his belt, but a chance is taken on SOMETHING LUCKY ending a long losing run. He also ran here last week and can race off the same mark as when beaten only a short-head over course and distance earlier in the year.
