Verdict

We don't see a great deal of TIQUER these days but when we do he usually runs well and his record fresh is a definite positive here, he ran an excellent race when last seen in December also so he gets the vote in quite a warm contest. Ultra-consistent The Paddy Pie will almost certainly make the frame for the 10th time on succession and Rock On Fruity is also within range handicap-wise.
