Verdict
This looks another winner for the champion jockey as TIN POT MAN will have come on for his recent reappearance at Hereford. He finished third on that occasion and looks to have slipped to a winning mark. King Mak wasn't beaten far at Market Rasen last time and will be thereabouts, but Rushwee will find this tougher despite having been in good form in sellers recently. Ironical unshipped his rider at the first hurdle when starting favourite at Southwell last time but can also figure with a clear round.
