      Verdict

      The betting suggested BROTHER TIGER was ready to take advantage of a slide down the weights last time and he duly returned a winning favourite over track and trip. He remains on a winning mark despite a 4lb rise and is preferred to Cultured Knight. The latter has gone close the last twice and blinkers are applied for the first time today but Menelik is 9lb higher than when scoring here in March and Sandfrankskipsgo make more appeal in this grade off his current mark. Rosealee is another with claims if at her best.
