Silent Revolution, Fame And Concrete and City Derby all carry penalties but their experience is likely to be an asset. Master Malcolm was only beaten a length-and-a-quarter by a subsequent winner at Hereford but Moonlight Flit will need to settle better that at Uttoxeter. A half-brother to last year’s Arkle winner Put The Kettle On and a winning bumper, YOUNG BUTLER is certainly bred for the job and his stable can get one ready at home.
