After winning at Catterick, TINNAHALLA (NAP) performed with credit in an aged-limited handicap at Ascot last month. The quicker ground didn’t appear to be a problem that day and Olly Murphy’s juvenile can defy his penalty here. Maghfoor had a poor strike-rate on the Flat while points winner The Wrekin has been getting outpaced over this trip in bumpers. Songo unseated his rider at the first at Wincanton on Sunday so also has plenty to prove.
