TIPPERARY TIGER is enjoying a productive spell on all-weather this winter, going in again over C&D on his penultimate start prior to finishing a solid second over 7f at Wolverhampton 23 days ago. He gets the nod to continue the good work back down in trip, with Patsy Fagan and Toussarok heading up the dangers.
