Optical lattice clocks are the prospective devices that can probe many subtle physics including temporal variation of the fine structure constant (). These studies necessitate high-precision measurements of atomic clock frequency ratios to unprecedented accuracy. In contrast to the earlier claimed highest sensitive coefficient () clock transition to in Yb [Phys. Rev. Lett. , 173001 (2018)], we found the transition of this atom can serve as the clock transition with the largest value (about 25(2)). Moreover, we demonstrate a scheme to attain simultaneous magic trapping conditions for this clock transition with the other two proposed clock transitions and ; also exhibiting large values. This magic condition can be realized by subjecting Yb atoms to a bias magnetic field at a particular polarization angle along the quantization axis in an experimental set up. Upon realization, it will serve as the most potential optical lattice clock to probe variation.
