None of these inspire much confidence but TIGSERIN has gone close off higher marks in the past and she gets a tentative vote. Chetan is better over 6f and scored off an 8lb lower mark here last season while the likes of Pennine Warrior and Steal The Scene have tumbled down the weights. The Happy Hammer pops-up at this level when the mood takes him and the newly-gelded African Trader has more scope than most of these as he returns to action.
