A difficult race to weigh up, with Tafiya getting the verdict over Tipsy Me, Dyanita and Tiber Tilly to name but a few. Bets should be kept to the bare minimum here, with the pin coming down on Tafiya who has been placed on a number of occasions in the past. Gerard Butler's filly has handled a Polytrack surface in the past at Lingfield, so has no problems on that score, and in a poor race like this, she may come good off what is a fair mark. Tipsy Me is going the right way, and as she was denied a clear run two furlongs out at Nottingham, has to be on the short-list as well. Dyanita has disappointed so far this term, but hails from a top yard and is their only runner at the meeting, while Tiber Tilly made all at Yarmouth in August but has failed to build on that victory. The market should be noted for the remainder, with the smallest of votes going to Tafiya.
