Verdict
Tight Lipped has been placed here a couple of times and races off the same mark as when only beaten a length at Chelmsford last time. Megamunch won a claimer over a mile here three runs ago but didn't appear to last home over this trip last time. Frosty The Snowman would have a chance on his Turf form but hasn't run very well here in two previous visits. Queen Of Skies is only a pound higher than when scoring here in December but that was over a mile and she's never looked like staying this far in the past. AMTIRED (NAP) is on a winning mark and has been in decent form over timber since the turn of the year - the grey may just outstay his rivals.
