Timesawastin has gone up 6lb for his latest second at Bangor but this is less competitive and he had both Jetnova and Radmores Revenge behind last time. The latter has since run well at Ayr and makes more appeal than Trustan Times, who will need to step up on his recent form over fences to figure off his current mark. Stopped Out is 10lb higher than when scoring at Kelso the last time he raced over timber and the vote goes to STAR IN FLIGHT. He's unlucky not to have recorded a hat-trick at Catterick, as he was clear of the field when unseating in-between his two victories, and Donald McCain's charge can follow-up his latest 11 length win on his handicap debut.
