Maiden winner Mighty Zip has yet to threaten in handicap company and Robin Park has looked in the assessor's grip since landing a double back in May. Especial and Kassbaan failed to cope with a rise in the weights last time and Off The Scale is upped in class after scoring at Newcastle. Buccaneers Vault could bounce back at any time of his current mark but THE TIN MAN is taken to show further progress now handicapping after winning a maiden race over track and trip last month and James Fanshawe's charge gets the vote.
