Based on the official ratings Tamarind Hill is well best treated in this Seller but with the gelding yet to score in 13 starts we turn to David Barron's FLOW CHART, whose been running well in defeat recently, while Marjolly carries our respect after success last time. A winner over course and distance in December in a handicap the selection hasn't been disgraced in a couple of efforts in those ranks since. He couldn't overcome adverse terms when tried at this standard for the first time on his last run but with him better treated this time he should run a big race. On the face of it Tamarind Hill has some solid form figures but he's ultimately been well held in his recent placed efforts and although he should to better back in this grade he is hard to recommend with any confidence. Marjolly has plenty to do at the weights but was impressive in victory at Kempton on his last start. He's yet to really impress at Southwell but is unexposed enough to improve. City Gossip and Moors Gorse have a mountain to climb to get in front and we think the summit can be reached by Flow Chart.
