In depth

Verdict

Tiny Tim is taken to score here with Cleveland Way, Illustrious Duke and Wodhill Be put forward as the main dangers. The selection was disappointing last time out at Wolverhampton but he is better on the fibresand and he had previously put up a string of consistent efforts which would make him the one to beat here. Cleveland Way finished behind our selection last time and there is no reason why the placings should be reversed here, but he still looks to have decent place prospects. Wodhill Be is another with place prospects and again he finished behind our selection last time, while Illustrious Duke was returning from a long break when finishing 6th in that same Wolverhampton race and he is sure to come on for that run so is worth noting in the market. However, we will stick with Tiny Tim as our idea of the winner.
