A maximum field of low-grade handicappers doesn't suggest a betting opportunity but TYRONE TIGER (NAP) can make amends for a last-flight fall when favourite at Down Royal. He probably wouldn't have beaten the winner Theo, who runs in the previous race, but he'd been running very well previously and compensation awaits. Boss Croaker has won over hurdles and fences on the track though wouldn't want more rain and has an absence to overcome while winning point-to-pointer Spiker The Biker has had 38 starts under Rules without winning and was beaten a long way into second at Sedgefield last weekend. Just Likeold Times has done a bit better on his last two starts while Gold Not Silver has been in winning form on the Flat at Dundalk and has a victory over hurdles to his credit so could provide the main threat.
