ULLSWATER was only reeled him close home at Downpatrick nine days ago and should have more chance of staying in front over this shorter trip - he's won off a higher mark in the past. Gin And Tonic finally opened his account over track and trip two weeks ago and is only 4lb higher so rates the danger ahead of Sweet World, who was second here two runs ago but is only a plater. None of the others make much appeal on recent form.
