    Verdict

    There isn’t a great deal between this quartet at the weights. Master Tommytucker is clearly talented but a lack of concentration cost him dear on more than one occasion last season. Tidal Flow needs soft or heavy ground to show his best and AL DANCER goes well fresh. Highly tried after winning at Cheltenham on his reappearance at this time last year, Nigel Twiston-Davies’ charge gets the nod as the mare Litterale Ci will have to be at her best after a break to figure.
