Tango Man lost a shoe when five lengths behind Poet Master over 7f here a couple of weeks ago though has a big weight for his handicap debut. Pearl Eye's course and distance victory came on fast going and he's untested in these conditions but Pol Roger has won on good to soft around here. REIDH, who is also engaged at Redcar tomorrow, has been running better than form figures suggest in stronger company so can get off the mark as Timely Escape looked better suited to 1m2f at Doncaster.
