2.55 Sandown

Tingo in the Tale 16/1

Really like the look of David Arbuthnot's 3 year old who looks very unexposed and who should be spot on after his recent reappearance run. In his 5 starts to date, TITT has proved himself to be a rather useful animal and I expect there is a lot more to come. On debut back in July of last year over 7f, this gelding ran a decent enough race in which the talented Group 3 winning Crius won as he finished about 7.5L beaten back in 6th. He looked like he lacked a bit of racecourse experience and looked certain to come from that effort. On his 2nd start, TITT broke his maiden when landing a Maiden at Brighton stepped up to a mile. Again, he looked to still be learning but he was forward enough to land this contest going away when scoring by 1.75L, with the front two pulling 5L clear of the remainder. Although the form of that race is only ok, he showed a likeable battling quality to draw clear from Sheila's Buddy when she drew back alongside. Moreover, that victory came on soft ground and given the heavy ground present today it demonstrates his ability to act on the surface.

On his 3rd start and after being assigned a handicap mark of 75, Tingo in the Tale ran a very admirable second over 1m at Newmarket on good to soft ground as he finished 1.25L behind Devdas. In a large field, he got a decent enough passage through from the back and was never nearer at the finish, demonstrating a step up in trip would suit. The form of that race is very solid, with Devdas performing well off a 6lb higher mark in better races. Moreover, the 4th Glee ran a cracker in the Tattersill Millions filly's 2YO race subsequently and the 5th Salford Art ran a very good race to beaten only 5L in a Group 1 subsequently. 2 starts back in October and upped to a mark of 78, TITT was upped to 9f on good ground at Newmarket and it was a strange performance. After travelling into the race very strongly, his stride shortened significantly and it looked as if he either didn't handle the good ground or something went wrong. Mizbah, who finished just behind Tingo in the Tale on his handicap debut, finished 3rd in this race so it clearly wasn't a true showing of his potential. This was his last start as a 2 year old and given he wasn't seen for 6 months either of my 2 analysis are very possible.

LTO, TITT made his AW debut at Kempton where he was a massive eye catcher in my eyes over 1m. In his traditional stlye of sitting off the pace, regular jockey James Doyle brought him down around the outside and under only hands and heels riding he stayed on past beaten horses to finish a 4L beaten 5th. Considering Doyle didn't go for the whip once, it looked clear to me that this was just to get a run under his belt after a long absence and he certainly appeared to have a lot of horse left under him.

Furthermore, the a step up in trip again looked like it would definitely benefit him. Today represents Tingo in the Tale's toughest challenge as he is upped to a Class 3 event for the first time. He is stepped up to 1m2f for the first time and this looks certain to suit this now 3 year old gelding significantly. Off his mark of 78, he is only 3lb higher than his good 2nd to Devdas and I certainly don't think this handicap mark is going to be the ceiling of his abilities. With his only run of soft ground a win, I think he will relish the return to testing conditions as well as the step up in trip. With 5 of his 7 rivals today coming back from at least a 3 month break, Tingo in the Tale has fitness on his side which is normally a very important factor in these events. He represents trainer David Arbuthnot's only runner of the day and I am a slight bit worried about his form at the moment. He's without a winner on the flat since last August and since February over jumps but his last runner was only beaten by 0.25L in a Bumper so his horses could be coming in to form now. With a good draw in stall 3, I am very confident of a big showing form Tingo in the Tale and hopefully there are non runners as only 8 go to post now.

Can't see where you're going with this one but its gone from 18's into 12's with Powers in the last hour.

So I'm now tempted.

Edit:

Probably the best write up/research on a selection I have ever seen. You put in a lot of effort Rossom, hope it comes good for you.
