No Triple Trio jackpot, none of Thursday's TT excesses but the world's best bet is still worth having a crack at on tomorrow's Happy Valley card.
It opens with a modest Class Five third event which features a number of disappointing types.
Concert Kaiser had every possible chance when a course-and-distance fourth last time out but remains a strong candidate for the role of banker.
He goes well over the Valley mile and could well get a soft lead. When he gets that, he's dangerous and local rider Eddie Lai can rate them well enough in front.
Towards the top of the weights, the Ivan Allan-trained Popular Acclaim is worth TT respect despite his temperament and despite a poor recent effort.
He appeals as well graded down in Class Five and is quite capable of running into the placings.
