Love Oasis finally got off the mark when narrowly scoring in this grade at Ayr but is upped 4lb while Steelriver looks no nearer ending a long losing run. Extrasolar went close at Catterick on his penultimate start but Parys Mountain makes more appeal on his second in a tough sprint at Goodwood last week. COSMIC CHATTER also drop in class and, having won off an 8lb higher mark last year, a chance is taken Ruth Carr’s charge bounces back in this.
