In depth

Verdict

Very competitive with everything dependent upon levels of progression made from two to three. FLAVIUS TITUS has the onerous task of conceding weight all round but was progressive throughout his three-race juvenile career and looked in need of his all-weather reappearance in April. He should be spot-on now and also ran very well here last season on his second start. The Right Choice also seems to be going the right way and showed a fine attitude when prevailing on his Pontefract reappearance. He's been raised 5lb for the win but should take that in his stride and also enjoy the move up to 7f. He's a big danger. Jungle Room has a shout if forgiven a recent disappointment and both the unexposed Makambe and the consistent Gleaming Sun are of interest at the foot of the handicap.
