This looks a very poor seller and it's a surprise to see Hail Tiberius entered as he's been in winning form in better company lately. He was engaged to run at Towcester yesterday and would be carrying an extra penalty if successful. Thomas Bell also has his sights lowered but is still a maiden over hurdles at the age of nine and Transfer is more interesting having finished fourth under McCoy over track and trip at the end of last month. TIN POT MAN has a much higher mark over fences and will appreciate the drop in grade. He gets a tentative vote to come out best on his reappearance as none of the others make much appeal.
