TINSILL had to be switched for a run over track and trip last time but the post came too soon and he could only manage third to Oldjoesaid. But he finished well ahead of Thatcherite on that occasion and Nigel Tinkler's sprinter can confirm running to land this. Ambitious Icarus finished ahead of Bosham and Mr Mo Jo when second here last month but was still beaten a long way and Tweety Pie makes more appeal if forgiven a poor effort at Doncaster last time. Choc 'A' Moca usually goes well at the track but is 11lb higher than when winning here in July.
