Jet Master won in this grade over 2m at Perth last time but steps up in distance for this. MANGO CAP drops back in distance after scoring at the same track but also drops down in class today and David Pipe’s charge gets the vote with a conditional’s allowance negating most of a 4lb rise. Fred Le Macon should also find this easier than his recent tasks having won at Hexham last month while Malin Bay showed signs of a return to form when beaten just over three lengths at the same track. Green Zone has won twice at Perth this year but seems to have lost his form.
