Off the mark at Yarmouth (10.1f) last July but mixed bag on Flat thereafter and well beaten over hurdles more recently. Needs to get back on track making polytrack debut.

5/2
Unreliable type. Seventeen runs since last win in 2022. 12/1, seventh of 9 in handicap at this C&D 7 days ago, slowly away. Others more persuasive.

6/1
Latest win over C&D in November. Respectable fifth of 9 in handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f, 18/1) 6 days ago, not quicken final 1f. Present mark demands that bit more.

3/1
Latest win at Newcastle in January. Respectable sixth of 12 in handicap (13/2) at Wolverhampton (12.2f) 13 days ago, nearest finish. Merits consideration.

4/1
C&D winner who added to his tally over 1m here in January. 7/4, creditable second of 12 in handicap at this C&D 13 days ago, edged out last ½f. Looks sure to go well again in this groove.

11/2
C&D winner. Respectable fourth of 8 in handicap (11/1) at Wolverhampton (12.2f) 27 days ago, needing stronger gallop. Drop back in trip will hold no fears and he's lurking on a handy mark.

14/1
Thirteen runs since last win in 2022. Visored for 1st time, last of 12 in handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f) in October, headed approaching 2f out and weakening. Absent since and the market may prove a useful guide here.

Forecasts

Hotspur Harry (5/2), Optik (3/1), Reverberation (4/1), Mirabello Bay (11/2), Stintino Sunset (6/1), Point Of Fact (14/1), Fillyfudge (28/1), Steven Seagull (66/1)

Verdict

Having landed a quick-fire hat-trick in January, OPTIK was far from disgraced in a strong race for the grade at Wolverhampton 2 weeks ago and he's worth another chance to prove his present mark remains a workable one. Reverberation is enjoying a good spell and is feared most, ahead of his stablemate Mirabello Bay.
