The Tyke gets the call here ahead of Casual Affair and Creme Brulee. Casual Affair has done enough to suggest that she is capable of winning a small race, and this one isn't very big. Creme Brulee's Lingfield Park second last time off a mark of 51 sadly, in some ways, gives her a chance too, while The Tyke's debut second to Ours rates as more than good enough to be given a very good chance in a modest event. Overall, this is not a very strong contest and The Tyke gets the vote.
