MARV MICHAEL had plenty in the tank when scoring here last month and still looks ahead of his mark despite taking a 11 lb hike in the weights here. Big Stage could emerge as the main danger on the back of a good Down Royal second, although Hardwired, Gaelic Arc and Pakens Rock need factoring in too.
