MULTITASK is getting closer as he slips further down the weights and an apprentice’s allowance further helps his cause. He gets the vote ahead of Malaysian Boleh, who was narrowly beaten over a mile here last time. Following Breeze looks a bigger danger having placed over track and trip the last twice though that one is closely matched with Watch Tan on latest running. Captain Marmalade won over a longer distance here last year but, along with course and distance winner, Gypsy Rider, hasn’t raced since September.
