Verdict

The powerhouses of Nicholls and Tizzard are represented by two of their lesser lights in Ringa Ding Ding and SHILLINGSWORTH. The former was a disappointment last time when perhaps the tactics were wrong but he may not be one to make excuses for. The booking of Richard Johnson for the selections looks a significant move on this drop in class. Similarly, Gary Moore and James Bowen are 2-3 when teaming up so Roll Of The Dice enters calculations on that statistic rather that his apparent ability.
  1. Shillingsworth
  2. Ringa Ding Ding
  3. Roll Of The Dice
