This is much tougher than the race No Win No Fee won here recently and Peter's Friend failed to cope with a 5lb rise last time having scored over track and trip before that. But Shelley Birkett's allowance means TATTING can effectively race off a lower mark than when winning over course and distance three weeks ago and he gets the vote to follow-up. Zaitsev, Raging Bear and Spes Nostra were successful on Turf last year and all three are good enough to get involved if taking to the Fibresand.
