Verdict

TICKANRUN has always promised to win races at some point, but was let go by Chris Grant and David Armstrong for £12,000 in May 2016, and moved to the care of Micky Hammond. However, we didn't hear any more of him until he posted a rock-solid comeback effort at Wetherby in late December, but he's massively respected despite a 5lb rise with his conqueror Final Fling going in again since. Hopefully, he doesn't 'bounce' and fully delivers at the business end of the race, but if he doesn't Tailor Tom looks to be the improving novice who is more than capable of picking up the pieces. American Life should have his measure at the revised weights based upon their Bangor clash in early January, but aged 11, he's far more exposed than the McCain trained six-year-old, who went down fighting subsequently under a penalty behind previous Newcastle scorer Chu Chu Percy at Catterick.
