Verdict
TYCHE concedes weight all round but will be ably assisted by the claim of Harry Russell in a race not as competitive as the numbers suggest. The Ellison filly has prevailed in close finishes the last twice on artificial surfaces and she was beaten under a length at Beverley earlier so can complete the three-timer. Clotherholme has been bang on the premises in his last three starts and is very much of interest off his unchanged mark of 49 while things didn't work out for Havana Go last time but his previous Ayr win over an extended mile suggests he's got every chance now.
