Verdict
The return to Southwell can help Tiny Tim, who is selected in preference to Sion Hill and Munaawesh. The latter does have to better his recent starts though, and is not one to rely upon too heavily. That said he is unexposed on this surface and does not have much to find to make the frame ion this company. Sion Hill almost got off the mark here in a seller last week and is also entitled to go close if repeating the effort this evening. However, the former Sir Michael Stoute inmate is way too unpredictable to be confidently recommended. The same has to be said of Xaloc Bay, who is a previous course and distance winner but has done nothing to suggest that an end to his fourteen-race losing streak is imminent. Therefore, we take another chance with Tiny Tim, whose rider takes a very handy 7lb off his back with his claim, which can make all the difference if he runs up to his recent level of form.
