Tiradia may be the pick of John Jenkins' two runners, ahead of Hi Tide, but was beaten 11 lengths behind SUFFICE at Worcester 10 days ago. It may be worth sticking with Laura Young's gelding here as that latest run was a big step up on previous form. Sandgate has been knocking on the door and blinkers could bring about a little improvement. Close Escape has been lightly raced and runs in his first handicap with Tom Wade probably best of the rest.
