Heiba attempts the minimum trip for the first time but a couple of fillies in Shesthedream and Nuala Tagula are weighted to beat him on these terms. However, the former never figured in a handicap recently and the latter’s best effort when trained in Ireland came over 6f. Eternalist is expected to improve for last month’s debut at Doncaster as she also drops in distance but YOUNG TIGER makes more appeal on the back of a placed effort over 5f at Beverley - Tom Tate’s charge gets the nod to come out best.
