In depth
Verdict
Most of these are old foes though last year’s winner Honey Gg stumbled and unseated at the start here last month. Decision Maker finished ahead of Young Tiger when third over track and trip last time and the latter had earlier won here with Piazon, Arzaak and Loulin behind. The latter went on to score at the track more recently and TAN was successful over course and distance last year. He’s won off a much higher mark subsequently and last week’s third at Chelmsford suggests he can go close in first-time blinkers.
