5/2

Bounced right back to form returned to the Flat (following 4 months off) when creditable third of 8 in handicap at Catterick (15.9f, good to firm, 5/1) 16 days ago. Solid claims if in similar form here.

Form: 53/521-3

Titainium⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Oliver Stammers| T: Grant Tuer| OR: 70

10/3

Fourth in a steadily run 1½m handicap on penultimate start and again was favourably positioned when all out to land a 4-runner handicap at Wetherby (10f, good to firm, evens) 7 days ago, having had the run of race. In good heart but stamina questions to answer over this longer trip.

Form: 8-25741

Rock N Roll Pinkie²⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 9-8| J: H Crouch| T: I Furtado| OR: 69| CD

15/8

C&D winner on final start of last season and has performed creditably on her two runs this season, latest when 3¼ lengths fifth of 8 in handicap at this C&D (good) 25 days ago, when caught further back than ideal. Respected now racing off 1 lb lower mark.

Form: 6821-35

Mount Olympus^p⁴²

Age: 7| Weight: 9-7| J: Rob Hornby| T: A King| OR: 68| BF| CD

15/2

Course winner notched 3 wins for Alan King in 2023 but has become temperamental. Creditable Flat run when fifth over 12f at Wolverhampton (caught wide) in February but made an underwhelming handicap debut back over hurdles last month. Remains to be seen if he can bounce back on the level.

Form: 113/86-5

Myboymax^b,t¹⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 8-11| J: Aiden Brookes⁽³⁾| T: Micky Hammond| OR: 58| D

10/1

Has performed respectably on both handicap starts this season, not ideally placed when fifth behind two of today's rivals at Catterick (15.9f) 16 days ago. Blinkers refitted and could be more competitive here.

Forecasts

Rock N Roll Pinkie (15/8), Morandi Second (5/2), Cosmic Soul (3/1), Titainium (10/3), Mount Olympus (15/2), Myboymax (10/1)

COSMIC SOUL has been knocking on the door and this looks a fair opportunity for him to finally open his account. He's marginally preferred to Morandi Second and Myboymax who chased him home in a slowly-run race at Catterick earlier this month.
