Young Tiger is a possible in this as he was only beaten a length off a 6lb higher mark when last appearing in this grade. Ustath’s latest second here came in a better contest and he also goes on the shortlist. Marwari was completing a double when beating The Tron over track and trip at the end of last month but fourth SCALE FORCE was the eye-catcher that day and could reverse the form if getting away on level terms this afternoon.
