      Verdict

      Gin Cobbler bounced back to form at Market Rasen last week but that’s earned the 11-year-old a penalty here. Roxyfet was just beaten at Sedgefield on Tuesday off this mark but Titian Boy has done all of his winning so far at Ayr and has disappointed in a couple of previous runs around here. HALCYON DAYS was beaten by Uno Valoroso over course and distance in January but is slightly better off at the weights and has won since at Catterick whereas the top weight was pulled up next time at Southwell. Rebecca Menzies’ consistent chaser gets the nod in a tight little handicap.
