When Banded racing came into existence, four runner-affairs of this type was not what the powers-that-be had in mind, but they all take winning and Tiny Tim looks the one to broaden the smiles of the holiday-making crowd. The Andrew Balding selection has been knocking at the door in similarly low-grade contests for two months now and will rarely get a better chance of winning his first run. He ought to win. Mayfair Maundy could be given chance based on a Lingfield second to Queens Jubilee in August 2002, but he has been absent for 578 days. The other pair have shown very little to date. Overall, then, this looks a big chance for Tiny Tim.
