MOTUEKA knows what it takes to win over this sort of trip and, having held his form well since winning at Uttoxeter in July, the gelding could take some stopping in this modest company despite picking up a 6lb penalty. Super Scorpion is closely matched with the selection on official ratings and is rated as big threat on these terms (5lb well in with his main rival). Inspireus stepped things up a notch last time out and can make the frame if he gets the trip. He is fancied to emerge as the best of the rest.
