FormscanBy Tom Weekes - THE LITTLE YANK has only ever dipped his toe into this 0-100 grade once, when scoring here in June, and has a second go today. A seven-time winner, the hardy veteran’s rating has dropped again recently, having been well held, but is a strong stayer on good ground with today’s rider claiming 7lb. Quarry Tiepy debuts in handicaps rated just 90 for Willie Mullins. A 2022-winning pointer, she should progress at this distance but might not upend The Little Yank. Four-year-old Georginas Jet has been running well and could be suited by today’s extra yardage. Slim Marvel is also interesting stepping up in distance.
