A tricky stayers handicap can go to Theatre Tinka, who may have too much toe for Noble Calling and Darn Good if this longer trip brings the best out of him. Not too many of the rest make any real appeal; with only Moonshine Beach standing out with each-way claims. However, the drop back in distance and a 3lb pull with Darn Good should ensure that he gets competitive and he could easily make the frame if he puts his mind to it today. Nevertheless, Theatre Tinka make marginally more appeal at the likely prices and he may be hard to reel in if he is allowed an easy time of things. Simon Whitworth has a good clock in his head for races of this nature and he can guide Theatre Tinka to a well deserved success if the partnership are allowed the run of the race.
