Back in calmer waters, TROPEZ POWER could be the answer The 4-y-o has come up short in big-field Class 2 handicaps returned to turf the last twice but this is more suitable and he’s 3lb lower compared to when scoring on the all-weather in February. Siam Fox did the job in good style from the front at Yarmouth and he remains on a workable mark following a 5lb rise, while Diamondonthehill and Grey Fox both make each-way appeal
