11/4

2 wins from 5 runs this year. Latest win at Thirsk in May. 13/2, below form eighth of 19 in handicap at York (11.8f, good) 9 days ago, doing too much too soon. Each-way claims back in calmer waters.

Form: 4-42118

7/1

Twelve runs since last win in 2020. 5/1, creditable second of 6 in handicap at Thirsk (14f, good) 20 days ago, no match for winner. One to consider.

Floating Rock^p,t¹³

Age: 6| Weight: 8-11| J: D C Costello| T: M Walford| OR: 60| C

9/4

Fairly useful jumps winner. Promising type. Shaped better than the result over 1m in a novice event at Thirsk last time. Looks very interesting on handicap debut stepping up markedly in trip.

15/8

C&D winner. Creditable 7½ lengths second of 12 to Let Me Be in handicap at this course (15.9f, soft, 4/1) 11 days ago, running on. Dangerous to rule out.

Forecasts

Let Me Be (7/4), Bollin Neil (15/8), Floating Rock (9/4), Sociologist (11/4), Cogital (4/1), Glan Y Gors (7/1), Flash Point (7/1), Three Castles (10/1), Card High (16/1)

FLOATING ROCK is no back marker over hurdles and should take a big step forward off a potentially good mark now he faces a more realistic distance on the level. Bollin Neil likes it here and he has to be respected. Sociologist ran below form in a competitive York handicap last week and this is more his bag.
