Forecasts

Positive Impact (7/4), Encourageable (5/2), Mr Professor (5/1), Leuven Power (6/1), Exminster (13/2), Vaccine (9/1), Culcor (12/1), Flash The Dash (12/1), Park Street (50/1)

POSITIVE IMPACT is going the right way and a prominent position might well see him to good effect once more, so he's preferred to Encourageable who has shaped better than the result on both handicap outings so far. Culcor is another one to be interested in on debut for Kevin Ryan.
