The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

Fair And Square shoulders a 5lb penalty for last week's all-the-way success over C&D and is likely to be thereabouts again. However, he is passed over in favour of GHERKIN, who finished third here last month and has been dropped 1lb since. With conditions sure to suit, he can improve past Giddy Aunt, who was only narrowly beaten into the runner-up berth on that occasion and she shouldn't remain a maiden for too much longer.

GHERKIN arrives on the back of 2 placed runs here and is more than capable of winning off a mark in the 50s. Fair And Square finally got off the mark in a C&D maiden last week and will be very competitive under his penalty if showing up in the same form. Phoenix Glow is another unlikely to be too far away.

Numerous chances in an open race. Giddy Aunt is high on the list but this could be the day for ATTY'S EDGE to come out on top.

BLETCHLEY STORM arrives here on the back of runner-up efforts at Nottingham and Windsor earlier in the year and compensation could be imminent for Michael Bell's filly now upped to 1m3f. Fougere is another who looks likely to pick up a race of this nature judged on recent performances and the daughter of Bated Breath is likely to be the mix once again. Last-time-out winner Churchill Rose is only 4lb higher on the switch to Tapeta and completes the shortlist.

BLETCHLEY STORM showed improved form switched to handicaps during the spring, bumping into a prolific scorer when last seen at Windsor in May. Boasting a pedigree that suggests this sort of trip should suit, she gets the narrow vote to come out on top, with Yarmouth scorer Churchill Rose and Angel of Peace heading up the dangers. Fougere is another not out of things.

An open race in which recent Yarmouth winner CHURCHILL ROSE gets the vote ahead of Bletchley Storm and Rampant.

Peter Chapple-Hyam appears to have found an ideal opportunity for NORTH VIEW to open his account on his third start. The son of Expert Eye was third behind subsequent Acomb winner Indian Run at Ascot on debut and backed that up with a narrow defeat at Newmarket last month, so could be too classy for this field. Angel Shared and Acer both bring a solid level of form to the table and may fill the places.

NORTH VIEW has the best form on offer here and will be suited by the return to sprinting. He can get off the mark. Angel Shared and Acer may provide the chief threat.

The best form belongs to NORTH VIEW, who has been placed on both starts and travelled well when runner-up over 7f at Newmarket latest.

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

Although a beaten favourite on her last two starts, another chance can be given to NO TURNING BACK. Pat Phelan's filly has gone close on all three attempts over this distance and is fancied to break her duck. Boarhunt should appreciate a return to 7f having kept on at the one pace over a furlong shorter at Wolverhampton, whereas the drop in trip could see Doves Of Peace to better effect after he appeared not to stay the mile at Kempton.

DOVES OF PEACE didn't enjoy the rub of the green back from a break at Kempton last month and is well worth another chance to confirm the promise of his course handicap debut second in March. No Turning Back has been runner-up on his last 2 attempts in handicaps and is second choice ahead of Mick Appleby's Boarhunt in a contest where few arrive with compelling claims.

A clear personal best three runs ago and pleasing efforts in difficult circumstances since make BOARHUNT the pick.

Motawaafeq has really found his form of late, having completed a double at Pontefract last month, and Mick Appleby's charge must enter calculations off only 2lb higher in the ratings. However, CALIN'S LAD appeared to triumph with something in hand at Wolverhampton when last seen in May and is fancied to shrug off a 5lb rise on his return from a 114-day layoff. In-form rivals Ciotog and He's A Gentleman are just two others to note in a competitive contest.

A host arrive with decent claims and it could just be worth siding with BUSHFIRE. A winner at Haydock 2 starts back, he again ran well from his revised mark when third at Pontefract in July and it would come as no surprise to see him go well back on the all weather. Bath scorer Ciotog, He's A Gentleman and Hotspur Harry head up the dangers.

Plenty have possibilities but the vote goes to 8yo CALIN'S LAD, who has won three of his last four starts and is as good as ever.

The Steph Hollinshead-trained PEPSI CAT justified strong market support when winning cosily over C&D a fortnight ago and although a 5lb rise is sure to make life more difficult, she is fancied to follow up. Foreseeable Future and Shesadabber were both denied hat-tricks on their most recent starts and appear the likely dangers as they look to get back to winning ways.

PEPSI CAT landed a gamble with a bit to spare over C&D a fortnight ago and could follow up. The thriving Foreseeable Future is feared most ahead of Shesadabber and Symbol of Hope.

Regal Envoy is feared back at Bath but the return to faster ground could be the catalyst for a revival from GLAMOROUS EXPRESS.

OLD FAITHFUL gets the nod over Starliner, Instant Appeal and Royalcorrespondent. His only ride on the card, Ryan Moore will be aboard the selection, who ran a fine race on debut at the Curragh. Third there behind well-touted stable companion Diego Velazquez, he should come on plenty for that initial effort. Starliner won a barrier trial at Naas and didn't have much luck in running when third on his most recent start at the Curragh. Trained by Donnacha O'Brien, it'll come as no surprise if the Showcasing colt manages to go a few places better now. Instant Appeal has two solid efforts to his name and is sure to have plenty of supporters, while Royalcorrespondent is the other leading hope. A disappointing fourth when well-fancied on debut at Fairyhouse, he is fitted with a hood for the first time now.

STARLINER sets quite a good standard for a race like this and is narrowly preferred to Aidan O'Brien's Old Faithful, who made an encouraging start to his career when third at the Curragh last month and Ryan Moore comes over for the ride. Instant Appeal is also likely to be thereabouts in a maiden likely to be dominated by that trio.

The presence of Instant Appeal and Starliner means this is no gimme for the promising OLD FAITHFUL but he's hard to oppose

LEAVES OF GRASS edges the vote on her nursery bow having gone close in a fillies' novice event over C&D last month, when getting headed deep inside the final furlong. Cotai Vision showed up for a long way in a deeper contest at Sandown and should be dangerous, with the form of her maiden victory working out well, thanks to the runner-up going in twice since. Desert Master can't be discounted if returning to his early-season form.

In a trappy-looking affair the suggestion is LEAVES OF GRASS who has improved with each start and might be up to getting off the mark here if that trend continues. Cotai Vision could provide the main opposition if bouncing back to the form she showed when winning at Bath.

A tight nursery. COTAI VISION perhaps did too much too soon from a wide draw at Sandown and is given another chance from stall 1.

Newcomer Eagle Angel is related to some highly-rated types and any market support for the son of Gleneagles must be taken seriously. Nevertheless, there was plenty to like about CAELAN's debut victory at Kempton last month and Marco Botti's gelding may be capable of defying a penalty. Queen Of Atlantis looks likely to build on her runner-up effort at Newbury in June and cannot be taken lightly in receipt of 8lb from the selection.

QUEEN OF ATLANTIS displayed plenty of promise amidst inexperience when second in a Newbury novice (6f) on debut back in June and, with progress very much anticipated, she could well be up to going one place better on all-weather debut. American Glory returned to AW and Kempton scorer Caelan head up the dangers, whilst market support behind newcomer Rogue State would need to be viewed positively.

The vote goes to QUEEN OF ATLANTIS, who sets the standard on her debut second at Newbury in June and is open to progress upped in trip.

Jax Edge struck here on a softer surface in May but that was off 9lb lower and although she gets on well with jockey Gina Mangan, she may have to give way to BEAU ROC on this occasion. A C&D winner off 3lb lower in mid-July, she is reunited with Billy Loughnane and wears a first-time tongue-tie, which may help her go in again. Moulin Booj and Confederation are others to consider, for the places at least.

MOULIN BOOJ ran well having 3 runs in the space of a week in August, getting off the mark at Wolverhampton and just running out of steam over 6f when fourth at Thirsk on his latest outing. He is taken to resume winning ways back down in trip, with Confederation feared most having made the frame here on his last 2 starts. Katar completes the shortlist.

There have been valid excuses for MOULIN BOOJ's two defeats since a smooth AW success and he can get back on the up this afternoon.

A fine second on debut at Navan in March, TIME TELLS ALL has been ultimately disappointing since. A half-brother to last year's Irish 1,000 Guineas winner Homeless Songs, he is fitted with blinkers for the first time now and they might work the oracle. Blinkers are also tried on Perseids, with this Joseph O'Brien-trained bay given second preference. Fifth on her return to action at Leopardstown in June, she should come on plenty for that effort. Sectarius ran a fine race on debut at Galway and he'll be well-fancied to go a few places better now. The strength of that Ballybrit contest is questionable though, with the first, fourth and fifth all beaten since. Placed six-times from 10 starts, Alabama Pearl certainly wouldn't be winning out of turn, while newcomers Hot To Foxtrot, Summer Holiday and Bungle Inthedesert all warrant respect.

Despite going off at unflattering odds, SECTARIUS offered plenty to work on when third starting out at Galway a month ago and with improvement forthcoming, he gets the nod in favour of Alabama Pearl and Perseids.

Not a strong maiden. SECTARIUS showed speed before only surrendering late on at Galway and today's faster surface could be preferable.

MASTER OF MY FATE justified strong market support with the minimum of fuss on debut at Pontefract and is fancied to make it two from two. Love Billy Boy put his Sandown disappointment behind him when finishing an excellent third in the valuable sales race at York just under a fortnight ago and merits respect along with Rainyniteingeorgia, who struggled at Goodwood but is a player on her Nottingham second.

Having opened his account in April, LOVE BILLY BOY upped his game again when an excellent third in a valuable sales event at York 13 days ago so, provided the race doesn't come too soon, he's fancied to get the better of Master of My Fate, who scored on debut at Pontefract last month. Tan Rapido is another one to consider.

If her defeat at Goodwood can be blamed solely on the track, RAINYNITEINGEORGIA, who ran so well on debut, could be the one.

INVINCIBLE AURA has shaped well on both starts to date and stepped forward when runner-up at Windsor most recently, despite hanging left in the closing stages. The extra furlong appears to be in his favour and Marco Botti's colt is expected to take advantage of the experience gained to date. The main threats may well come from the newcomers in the shape of Yaajooz, Big Lou and Blessed Boy.

INVINCIBLE AURA stepped up on his debut when second at Windsor and his experience should count for plenty. Big Lou and Blessed Boy make the most appeal of the newcomers before market clues.

Preference is for INVINCIBLE AURA, who was runner-up at Windsor last time and is open to more improvement at this new trip.

SPRITZIN' failed to justify favouritism at Epsom but she ran on well to be beaten less than three lengths over 1m4f. She is upped in trip by Sir Mark Prescott and any losses may be recovered now. Denis Anthony was also sent off favourite before finishing second at Lingfield, but he ran in snatches a bit and may have to settle for the same position here. Hamilton winner Dreams Adozen can follow them home.

DENIS ANTHONY has remained in form since winning at Ffos Las in June and went down only to a well-ridden rival at Lingfield last time, so appeals as the one to beat. Fellow 3-y-o Dreams Adozen was running well in defeat before completing a simple task at Hamilton, so merits consideration, with My Chiquita likely to benefit for the step up in trip and respected also.

Sir Mark Prescott's SPRITZIN' looks open to improvement over this longer trip if giving herself a chance by settling.

WOODCOCK FLIGHT belatedly made the breakthrough on his 11th start at Bellewstown last week and the Awtaad bay might be able to follow-up now. He dominated from the front at the Co Meath venue and if similar tactics are deployed, he could prove difficult to peg back. Livio Milo finished a place ahead of the selection when they clashed at Naas in June and he since made the breakthrough at Galway. A bit disappointing when fourth on his most recent start at Killarney, it'll come as no surprise if he manages to bounce back here. Dance Night Andday impressed when getting off the mark at Leopardstown recently and she is sure to have plenty of supporters, while On Our Radar, Not Just Yet and Artemis Jones all warrant respect in this competitive affair.

DANCE NIGHT ANDDAY had a fair bit to spare at Leopardstown so a 7 lb rise may not prevent her going in again. Artemis Jones has been cut a bit of slack by the handicapper and is second choice ahead of Dermot Weld's Livio Milo.

Having left behind a below par handicap debut when fifth over 6f at the Curragh, ARTEMIS JONES is taken to gain her second win over 7f

ART DE VIVRE struck with ease on her handicap bow at Thirsk last week and a 6lb penalty is unlikely to stop the daughter of Golden Horn from going in again. The main threat might be Solution, who got off the mark by the narrowest of margins at Kempton and could have a say again off 3lb higher. Arcadian Friend flopped behind Solution at the Sunbury circuit but can't be written off just yet.

SOLUTION relished the step up to this sort of distance when winning at Kempton last month and, with further improvement on the cards, he takes marginal preference over fellow last-time-out winner Art de Vivre. Bodygroove can also feature if the race is run to suit.

The two 3yos who won last time look worth concentrating on. SOLUTION had three of these in behind when winning at Kempton.

SHEEHAN displayed a lot more than her debut effort when finishing second at Pontefract and it would be no surprise to see James Fanshawe's filly go one better on this occasion. Create has to give weight to all of her rivals following her debut victory here over a mile in February, but she is likely to enter calculations along with Perovskia, who outran her odds when third at Chepstow on her second career start.

CREATE's 6-month absence having made a taking winning debut at this venue is a slight cause for concern but that race worked out quite well and if she is at that sort of level, she's capable of conceding weight all round. Sheehan left her opening run trailing in her wake when runner-up at Pontefract and she's a threat, with newcomer Hamlet worth a look in the betting.

This looks weaker than the 1m maiden won by CREATE in February and Scott Dixon's filly can give weight away and make a winning return.

Tamilla came home a distant last when tried over two miles at Ascot, but she is far happier at this trip and runs off the same mark as her last success at Kempton in August 2022. She can go well, but WARREN HILL got off the mark comfortably in a lesser contest at Nottingham last month and the extra couple of furlongs appear ideal. Handicap debutant Avon Light is also worth some thought.

A few in with chances but preference is for DIVINA GRACE, who failed to fire in first-time headgear at Newmarket recently but should be capable of making a splash returned to a more realistic grade. Warren Hill opened her account with aplomb at Nottingham last month so she may emerge as the main threat now up and running. The William Haggas-trained Tamilla and Flash Bardot can do battle for minor honours.

This longer trip promises to suit WARREN HILL (nap) who looked better the further she went when winning over 1m2f at Nottingham.

This looks a good opportunity for CELTIC CROWN. A five-time winner, the Adrian McGuinness-trained six-year-old is by far the highest rated runner in the line-up and has a course and distance win to her name. Tried in Listed company on her penultimate start, she wasn't beaten far when sixth on her most recent outing at Leopardstown. Bidding for a third win in-a-row at Gowran, You Owe Me Money is given second preference. She was beaten by the selection on their only previous meeting last summer and is worse off at the weights now. Velvet And Vine is an interesting contender. After three solid efforts in maiden company, she was eighth of 18 on her handicap debut at Leopardstown and should be able to make an impact in a contest of this quality. A nine-time winner in the UK, Gometra Ginty was sent off a well-backed favourite at Cork recently and while she disappointed there, an improved performance looks likely from her now with Sean Bowen claiming a valuable 7lb. A winner at Limerick in June, Saturn Seven is another for the shortlist.

CELTIC CROWN is potentially a cut above now dropping into a claimer and can strike for the Ado McGuinness team. You Owe Me Money racked up back-to-back handicap wins in May and will likely be the chief threat if showing up from a break in similar form. Velvet and Vine may fare best of the rest.

At these weights it's difficult to get away from CELTIC CROWN who didn't run at all badly in her latest handicap.

KARAT KARAT accounted for her four rivals by upwards of three and a half lengths over 1m2f at Yarmouth and the daughter of Australia shaped as if a step up to this distance should suit, so she can defy her winner's penalty to record a double. Humanity failed to fire at cramped odds when fourth at Lingfield, but he could easily put that effort behind him to produce a display more indicative of his ability. Any market support for Iffraaj filly On Cloud on debut should be noted.

This can go to KARAT KARAT, who built on her encouraging debut when scoring at Yarmouth last month and remains with potential. Humanity is feared most.

Humanity will be a real threat if bouncing back to something like his debut form but KARAT KARAT looks much the safest play.

Asmund has been knocking on the door recently and is capable of another decent showing, while others for the shortlist include Homer Stokes and Hezahunk.

VARIETY ISLAND was better than the result at Catterick last time and might be worth chancing having twice gone close off a similar mark at Newcastle in June. Homer Stokes, who goes unpenalised for last week's C&D success, Asmund and Hezahunk head the dangers in a wide-open affair.

Galileo filly GRATEFUL is out of Breeders' Cup Mile and six-time top-level winner Tepin, and was very green on debut. She was never in contention at the Curragh but if she breaks well and races with the pace, is likely to improve dramatically. Camelot Alexander, out of a Group 3 winner, ran well on debut at Tipperary and while well held by the winner, holds experienced 84-rated Glor Tire on that form. Settlement showed ability when leading on her Curragh introduction, but her trainer's stable jockey rides at Gowran, while Masaiya needs to improve from her Leopardstown debut and runs in a first-time tongue-tie. Foxtrot Zulu is a half-sister to pacey Group 1 and Group 3 winners, but it is a possible negative that she debuts over a mile as a juvenile. There are capable winners in Unreasonable's pedigree.

A host in with chances and it could be worth taking a punt on newcomer FOXTROT ZULU, who fetched a mouth-watering 450,000 gns as a yearling and confidence would only heighten should market support arrive. Settlement showed plenty of ability when fourth at the Curragh on debut recently, so she could be the one to give the selection most to think about, with Camelot Alexander and Grateful another pair fancied to be bang there.

The one to be on looks to be SETTLEMENT who ran a very nice race at the Curragh despite things not going her way

BILLAKI MOU has posted two creditable efforts in defeat when staying on over 1m2f lately and a breakthrough success could be on the cards now upped in trip. Send In The Clouds has something to prove after finishing fifth at Brighton on Sunday, but would hold leading claims if anywhere near his best. Broad Appeal's rating continues to slide, with the nine-year-old dangerous to discount if putting it all together.

BILLAKI MOU has been running consistently well in defeat during the summer and looks to have found a good opportunity to shed his maiden tag. Miss Sligo is another who has largely held her form well lately and went close here earlier this season, whilst Trussst In Me is a potential improver now stepping into handicaps.

The handicap debutante TRUSSST IN ME is bred to be better than her lowly opening mark and she earns the vote ahead of Miss Sligo.

BELLE OF ANNANDALE was victorious by just over a length at Perth when making her first appearance over hurdles and that form is working out well, with the third going in subsequently. The daughter of Australia might improve further for the step up in distance and she looks the one to be with. Rory's Story wasn't disgraced in third in a Market Rasen bumper and could land a blow, while Lisnamult Lad looks the clear pick of the rest.

A potential match between LISNAMULT LAD and Belle of Annandale, with marginal preference for the former, who wasn't seen to best effect but confirmed his liking for this sort of trip when a close third at Downpatrick a couple of months ago. Adrian Keatley's filly made the perfect start over hurdles at Perth recently, so she's sure to give the selection plenty to think about, with hurdling debutante Rory's Story worth a market check now stepping up in trip.

Fresh from a double at Tipperary on Sunday, Tim Doyle saddles two here, with his PINK SOCKS the suggestion. While without a win in 13 starts, she filled the runner-up spot on her most recent visit to Gowran, and kept on well in the closing stages when seventh on her latest outing at Killarney. Drawn on the rail, the Vadamos bay will be ridden by Amy Jo Hayes who claims a valuable 7lb. Danesfort was an eye-catcher when a fast-finishing fourth at Killarney last month, and the John Murphy-trained gelding is given second preference. Third on his last two starts, Partisan Hero is sure to have plenty of supporters with Jake Coen aboard, while seven-time winner Skontonovski is another leading hope. A case can be made for many others in this competitive affair, with Pinball Wizard and Qaabil two others for the shortlist.

SKONTONOVSKI has a handy turf mark to exploit and having not been seen to best effect at Bellewstown last week, he's well worth another chance. Pinball Wizard and Partisan Hero head the opposition.

A chance is taken on LISABETTA, who hinted at a return to form here before getting no luck in running at Bellewstown.

BELO HORIZONTE goes from strength to strength, winning his last three starts under Neil Callan. The latest came on his handicap debut over C&D last week, when he was sent clear inside the final furlong to strike by a cosy couple of lengths, and a 6lb penalty may not be enough to stop his run. Sprezzatura was only beaten a neck on his first start for Mick Appleby and can go close again off just 1lb higher. Cabaret Show intrigues on her handicap debut, on her second start following wind surgery.

It's hard to look past BELO HORIZONTE, who made a mockery of his opening mark when scoring on handicap debut here last week. Al Tarfa and Angel of Antrim rate the principal dangers.

This revolves around BELO HORIZONTE who can't be opposed racing off just 2lb higher than when readily landing the hat-trick last week.

DOUBLETHETROUBLE is on a much-reduced mark and shaped as if back in form when fourth at this course 9 days ago so, back up in trip, he's worth chancing. Zivaniya should benefit from a return to tapeta and ranks as the main threat ahead of Our Scholar, who has landed a hat-trick over hurdles recently.

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.

THE FIRST AND LAST has had a light campaign this summer, but his C&D short-head defeat in April was useful. He faces a slightly lesser task than when finishing fifth at Leopardstown last month, which was also his first run for 52 days. Muhaarar's Girl is suited by this distance and while she appears limited, a return to drier ground could help. Highland Rahy was well behind the selection here last April, but has shown much better form since and has place claims. Ninth Life ran OK over C&D in May and returns from a mini-break, while Lord Vader, second in a Naas charity race recently, needs to improve and runs in first-time cheekpieces. Vera's Secret is a half-sister to an 11-time winner but makes a belated debut aged four.

THE FIRST AND LAST should be suited by the drop back in trip here and can open his account at the fifth attempt. Highland Rahy and Muhaarar's Girl rate the principal dangers.

The standard is set by THE FIRST AND LAST due to narrow defeats at Cork and Ballinrobe and he might be good enough

Asense broke her duck in a classified event when upped to 1m5f at Lingfield and must enter calculations on her return to handicap company. However, Gary Moore's filly isn't sure to prove as effective now dropped in trip and it may be worth taking a chance on KINDGIRL, who has first-time cheekpieces fitted, which may help eke out the necessary improvement. C&D winner Uther Pendragon makes most appeal of the remainder.

Back in headgear, ASENSE got off the mark when making most at Lingfield last month and she can score again now that she's up and running. Kindgirl wasn't discredited when making the frame here 18 days ago and could be the main danger with cheekpieces applied, while Uther Pendragon isn't one to discount at this C&D.

Having got off the mark at Lingfield three weeks ago, the in-form filly ASENSE is taken to follow up. Uther Pendragon is next best.

MY GIFT TO YOU justified favouritism on his first two starts after joining the James Owen stable and then lost little in defeat when second, again as the market leader, at Cartmel. The five-year-old seemed to see out the 2m6f trip well enough and he is likely to be bang there once again off the same rating. Dakota Beat ran out a determined winner at Bangor and will need considering off 3lb higher, while Haveyougotmymoney could improve in first-time cheekpieces and for a wind operation.

MY GIFT TO YOU hasn't looked back since joining James Owen and can make it 3 wins in his last 4 starts. John McConnell has a very healthy 10-20 Hexham record so his Battle of Benburb, who sports first-time cheekpieces, could bounce back to form and pose a threat, particularly if the betting vibes are strong. Haveyougotmymoney should also have a stay if his stamina holds now stepping up in trip.

Although beaten at Cartmel last week, MY GIFT TO YOU still appeals as the likely winner.

GREAT BLASKET is one of the safer options in this wide-open affair. Successful on his handicap debut here last month, he since followed-up at Killarney. Jack Kearney was aboard the Gregorian gelding at the Co Kerry venue and he retains the ride, with the talented apprentice again claiming a valuable 7lb. Brewel Hill denied Everylittlestep of a four-timer at the Curragh last month and it'll be interesting to see if he can follow-up on that success. Just half-a-length behind the selection at Killarney, Rock Etoile should give a good account of himself, while the lightly raced Rerkha is an interesting contender on just her second start in handicap company. Other leading hopes are Portreath, Court Of Appeal and Lady Arwen.

RELEVANT RANGE caught the eye at Killarney 2 weeks ago so could be the answer off a reduced mark. Rock Etoile and Brewel Hill head the dangers.

Perhaps ROCK ETOILE, who defied a similarly wide draw over C&D in the spring, can reverse Killarney form with Great Blasket

Handel got off the mark at Yarmouth, but he has to race off 5lb higher and is yet to win after 13 attempts on the all-weather. He can still go well, but may have to give way to STAR OF EPSOM. The Pat Phelan-trained mare has won three times here over a mile and a quarter, but could have the speed needed for this trip and should be finishing fast and late. Luna Queen and Bhubezi can chase them home.

In a tricky finale slight preference is for VILLALOBOS, who has a good record here and wasn't seen to best effect at Salisbury last time. Handel and Luna Queen can also make their presence felt.

In the hope he can get into a good rhythm out in front and use his stamina late, VILLALOBOS (nap) is taken to make it 3-7 here.

JILL ROSE (third) had Woobay (fifth) behind when denied by under a length at Thirsk last time and she boasts leading claims off the same mark here. Ray Vonn is a live threat despite putting in an underwhelming display at Newcastle. That was over 7f and the step back to this distance looks like a good move and he merits consideration.

SUN POWER has been given a chance by the handicapper and signalled a return to form when fourth at Redcar last time. He gets the nod in the finale. Crypto Quest and Jill Rose head the list of dangers.

This looks tricky but the vote goes to four-time AW winner SUN POWER who was an eyecatching fourth off a reduced mark at Redcar latest.

KING CUAN met significant trouble in running on debut and is clearly capable. The form of that Curragh maiden has worked out very well, with the winner and fifth-placed horses each winning subsequently, while the runner-up was later fifth in the Phoenix Stakes. He conceded weight to those rivals but today receives 9lb from principal opponent McTenett, a maiden winner recently. McTenett himself conceded weight in winning at Naas, but faces a tougher task now aiming to do the same to the selection. Bodyguard, a 30,000-euro yearling, is by a sprinting stallion and could be useful, while Sovereign City has place claims. Pipsy is out of an unraced half-sister to a French Group 2 winner but debuts in a first-time tongue-tie.

KING CUAN was a warm order for his debut and shaped with a good deal of promise when fourth at the Curragh, so he's a confident choice to open his account at the second attempt. McTenett, the only previous winner in the field, looks the obvious danger and Pipsy is the most interesting newcomer.

Unlucky on debut at the Curragh in May, KING CUAN looks one to be on the right side of and can land this

BELVEDERE BLAST recorded a treble before being pulled up in the Summer Hurdle at Market Rasen, but this looks like a contest that should be well within his compass so he is fancied to return to winning ways. The main danger might be Copper Beach, who ran well over 2m7f for the first time when third at Market Rasen, although this step back in trip still looks a good move. City Derby put in a bold display for fourth at class 3 level in heavy conditions at Cartmel and he can go well off the same mark.

MALANGEN has been in good form for a while and, if left alone in front, he looks capable of getting back to winning ways at the likely expense of Copper Beach. City Derby is another one to consider.

An open contest could go to BELVEDERE BLAST, who had excuses when pulled up last time.

A PIECE OF HEAVEN has some strong form to his name and might be able to make the breakthrough here for local handler Barry Fitzgerald. Fourth on his three starts to date, his penultimate effort came in the Grade 1 bumper at the Punchestown Festival in April. He ran another solid race on his most recent outing at Leopardstown in June and had Nikini, who re-opposes now, a place behind. Uxmal ran well on his return to action at Tramore last month and fitted with cheekpieces for the first time now, he is a leading contender. Impero is without a win in 15 starts, but is a consistent performer and should give a good account of himself with Jack Cleary claiming 7lb. The Banger Doyle, The Mediator and the aforementioned Nikini are other leading hopes.

IMPERO isn't the most reliable but he's good enough to win a race like this so can finally break his duck. Uxmal is feared most ahead of A Piece of Heaven.

One suspects there's more to come from A PIECE OF HEAVEN who was a creditable fourth in a better maiden than this at Leopardstown

PINPOINT won on his nursery bow at Bath on his penultimate outing before appearing to find his next start at Windsor coming too quickly for him as connections opted to turn him out under a penalty. This appears to be a solid opportunity for Richard Hannon's colt to bounce back to winning ways. Charlie Mason and Big Brown Bear arrive in consistent form and the pair are expected to serve it up to the selection.

PINPOINT has been much improved for the switch to nurseries, winning at Bath before a solid third under a penalty at Windsor, and remains of interest. States got back on track switched to AW when fourth at Wolverhampton and will be suited by the return to 6f, so rates the main threat ahead of Charlie Mason, who has responded well to a visor.

The return to 6f looks likely to suit STATES, who is taken to build on his Wolverhampton effort. Charlie Mason is second choice.

WAVE MACHINE is in form, ground-versatile and suited by this distance. Winner of November's Birdcatcher Nursery, she has done well in recent months and is now 4lb lower than when second at Naas last month, with today's rider again claiming 7lb. Polar Bear finished half a length ahead of Tamazu at Bellewstown and the pair meet on similar terms. However, Polar Bear might prefer slightly easier ground, while Tamazu's best form is over five furlongs. Linger For Longer steps up in grade from a recent C&D triumph and while 4lb higher, that is more than offset by her 5lb claimer. Collective Power has been running well under a 7lb claimer recently and is suited by this distance and drying ground.

WAVE MACHINE is handicapped to win and took a step back in the right direction when runner-up at Naas a month ago, so she's worth a chance to go one better for an in-form stable. Linger For Longer and Polar Bear arrive at the top of their game and are also expected to be involved.

The selection is WAVE MACHINE(nap) after three solid efforts on his last three runs and has been given a real chance by the handicapper

HORN CAPE failed to fire when sent off favourite at Cartmel, but the Ben Haslam-trained six-year-old had been progressive prior to that defeat and could bounce back now eased in grade. Minella Plus made the frame at Bangor on his latest appearance and is likely to be in the mix once again off a 2lb lower mark, while Allbetsoff and Pateen are the pick of the remainder.

MINELLA PLUS has a lowly hurdles mark to exploit and given the promise of his latest effort at Bangor, he looks ready to cash in. This represents a drop in grade for Horn Cape and he's a massive threat, with the veteran Pateen likely to give it another good shot.

Having hinted at a return to form on his latest start, MINELLA PLUS can take advantage of his tempting mark.

POUTCHEK built on her debut third at Newmarket when filling the runner-up spot here last month and Roger Varian's filly is expected to take another step forward on this occasion to shed the maiden tag. The extra furlong here appears likely to yield improvement and she gets the vote at the main expense of You Got To Me, a 200,000gns purchase for a yard in excellent form at present, and Glimpse The Moon.

Hard to see beyond POUTCHEK, who went very close here 3 weeks ago and has more improvement to come. Raknah retains potential back from a break and has races in her. You Got To Me might be the pick of the newcomers.

The clear pick of the fillies with experience is POUTCHEK. Interesting newcomer You Got To Me is feared most.

RAGGA BOMB was one of just two newcomers to debut in a valuable sales race at Naas last month, but he performed with promise and beat some capable rivals. Slowly away before finishing well, he should progress and will also be better suited by a sounder surface. Carnegie Hall is consistent and experienced, but is vulnerable to progressive types. His course neck defeat by subsequent Listed winner Asean reads very well but he failed to build on that run, although he may have been unsuited by 7f at the Curragh last time. Take Me To Church was a notable 38,000-euro breeze-up purchase in May and could finish third, while Dabirsim Flyer and Wrestling Revenue have ability but need to improve.

RAGGA BOMB acquitted himself well when a staying-on eighth of 20 in a sales race at Naas on debut and, in calmer waters, he can find the requisite improvement to get the better of Carnegie Hall, who sets the standard but is more exposed. Wrestling Revenue is the pick of the remainder.

Having seemingly failed to stay 7f last time, CARNEGIE HALL can get off the mark with a repeat of some of his better earlier runs.

PROSPECT HOUSE arguably put in a career best when second over hurdles at Market Rasen a couple of weeks ago and the five-year-old could be hard to stop if transferring that form to the larger obstacles here.

CHECK MY PULSE is becoming well treated (now 3 lb below his last winning mark) so could be the answer. Heros de Moutiers and Finalshot are potential threats if bouncing back.

With the benefit of wind surgery, HEROS DE MOUTIERS can gain a first success under rules.

A contest where a few arrive with something to prove including Dunes King, who was disappointing at Nottingham last month following his debut victory at Windsor, but a chance is taken with GREATEST TIME. The son of No Nay Never ran with plenty of promise when runner-up at Newmarket last September and is expected to leave his Newbury display in the spring well behind him. Leicester scorer No Surrender made all to get off the mark at the second time of asking and the return to a mile is unlikely to inconvenience him.

The 7f course novice AKKADIAN THUNDER finished mid-field in back in June worked out well and sure to build on that considerate introduction, he could be the way to go. Dunes King, No Surrender and Bloomwithgrace are just a trio of potential threats.

It's worth giving another chance to GREATEST TIME. Second choice is Bloomwithgrace.

QUEEN OF THUNDER caught the eye when slowly away on debut and should better today's unofficial 80 perch. That Curragh introduction was confined to newcomers and while initially asleep in the stalls, she showed ability to get involved. She has notable big-race entries and has a fine pedigree. Dandy Lichious is 3lb wrong at these weights and while 7lb-claimer ridden when running well at the Curragh recently, seems progressive and is suited by good ground and this distance. Maiden winner The Caribbean races in blinkers, has been well held in two stakes races and tries this trip for the first time. Perfect Judgement also steps up to 7f, has run two consistent races and can get involved. Miss Black Jack did really well to finish fourth, having almost jumped a railing mid-race, at Fairyhouse in June but was well held here subsequently, although steps up a furlong. Uncle Albert is 11lb wrong but his rider claims 5lb and he bumped into a subsequent winner at Sligo last month.

There should be more to come from PERFECT JUDGEMENT, who was strong in the market when a good fourth at the Curragh last month. He gets the nod. Queen of Thunder may provide the chief threat.

Having run with promise despite showing her inexperience on debut at the Curragh, QUEEN OF THUNDER could improve enough to score

It is hard to oppose HAPY LA VIE, who had plenty in hand when scoring over C&D on his most recent outing in June. James Ewart's gelding has been raised 6lb for that effort but that may vastly underestimate his ability. Cash Again has made the frame on his last couple of starts and is likely to do so once again on his debut for Simon West, while So Be It and Humps And Bumps complete the shortlist.

HAPY LA VIE has few miles on the clock and was well supported when opening his account over C&D in June. He is fancied to follow up. West Lawn and Cash Again head the list of dangers in what looks a competitive finale.

After his C&D win in June, progressive 6yo HAPY LA VIE (nap) appeals most.

Last-time-out novice winner Evening Story is only 2lb higher than her last appearance in handicap company, when runner-up at Southwell in December, and the New Bay filly is dangerous to discount. C&D winner Lordsbridge Girl is now only 1lb higher than her last winning mark and is another to note.

It could be worth chancing WADACRE GRACE, who's potentially well treated back on AW. Sail On Silverbird only just failed at Wolverhampton so is the obvious threat off a similar mark, with recent novice winner Evening Story another to consider.

The vote goes to SAIL ON SILVERBIRD, who looked unlucky last time given her very wide trip. Evening Story is second choice.

Seven of these contested two divisions of a C&D handicap last week and HOPE AND INNOCENCE, drawn on the stands side, might prove best in first-time cheekpieces. Nicely bred, she finished her race strongly behind Trueba and might turn the form around, with Wesley Joyce now claiming 7lb. Trueba's 3lb penalty for winning has been eroded by the handicapper's decision to drop all horses, for inflationary reasons, that same weight in recent days. He beat Gurkha Girl (second) and She's Local (third) last week and each has claims, although the selection might have an ounce more in hand. Von Krolock finished second in last week's other divide (Angel's Feather was sixth and Rose Of Malta was eighth) and while he is a 13-race maiden, has a stands-side draw and is now ridden by a 7lb claimer. Han Solo's best form is over a mile but he ran well at Killarney in July, while Ferrybank will appreciate drying ground. Goldmoyne's jockey reported he hung right on a bend at Leopardstown last month.

SHE'S LOCAL remains a maiden but was deserving of plenty of credit for coming from as far back as she did when third behind Trueba over C&D 7 days ago and she could just be worth chancing to reverse those placings and open her account. Angel's Feather remains less exposed than most and she's another to consider. Aforementioned Trueba and Gurkha Girl complete the shortlist.

Maybe ANGEL'S FEATHER could improve enough from her run on the round course here last time to score.

FINEST LEADER has proved a revelation in recent months, with the son of Churchill still appearing to have more in the locker when completing a hat-trick at Newmarket last month. The gelding is only 4lb higher here and is hard to oppose. Unlimited justified strong support in the market when pulling away to score on his handicap debut at Newbury and looks an obvious threat under a 6lb penalty, while Lion Kingdom makes most appeal of the remainder.

UNLIMITED got off the mark readily on his handicap debut at Newbury, doing well to come from off the pace in a steadily-run contest, so a penalty might not be enough to prevent him from following up. He can see off the challenge of Finest Leader, who isn't taken lightly in his bid for a 4-timer, with Lion Kingdom the pick of the remainder.

Improving UNLIMITED could well defy a penalty for last week's Newbury win. Lion Kingdom is second choice.

ZERO CARBON has some solid form on turf but he has won four of his six starts on the all-weather and is two out of two here at Kempton, including a neck success last time out. Only up 2lb for that, the son of Acclamation may be up to winning again, with fellow course-specialists Soar Above and Sayifyouwill interesting alternatives off their current marks.

A good contest, with cases to be made for each of the octet, though MITROSONFIRE perhaps makes most appeal after an encouraging effort at Newmarket and having edged back to his last winning mark. Zero Carbon's willing attitude helped him to a second C&D success last month and he's likely to pose a threat, whilst Soar Above also boasts a fine record at this course and arrives in good form.

This should be run at a good clip and that will suit C&D winner SAYIFYOUWILL, who all things considered ran well at Newmarket.

Believe You Me showed improved form to stroll home at Chepstow in July and, if she can repeat that on the Polytrack, an added 6lb may not stop another big effort. That said, if first-time cheekpieces focus the attention of CONCERT BOY, he may build on a two-length fifth at Ayr last time out to win for the second time. Surrey Noir is another to consider after his short-head second over C&D last month, with the booking of James Doyle catching the eye.

The two that stand out on profile are SURREY NOIR and Believe You Me. The latter was an easy winner at Chepstow and isn't passed over lightly but the former displayed much-improved form on the back of a gelding operation when touched off over C&D last time and he's just preferred.

There are surely races to be won with SURREY NOIR (nap) off this mark and he can gain compensation for a recent near miss over C&D.

About U.K Horse Racing

Horse racing is a popular and historic sport in the UK, with a tradition dating back centuries. It is a multi-billion pound industry that attracts millions of spectators each year and generates significant economic activity.

There are two main types of horse racing in the UK: flat racing and jump racing. Flat racing is run on a level course and is typically shorter in distance, while jump racing involves horses jumping over obstacles and is generally longer in distance. Both types of racing are popular with spectators and bettors, and they take place at various racetracks throughout the country.

The most famous horse racing event in the UK is the Grand National, which is held annually at Aintree Racecourse in Liverpool. It is a jump racing event that is known for its challenging course and has become a national institution in the UK. Other notable horse racing events in the UK include the Derby, held at Epsom Downs Racecourse in Surrey, and the Royal Ascot, held at Ascot Racecourse in Berkshire.

Horse racing in the UK is regulated by the British Horseracing Authority (BHA), which sets rules and standards for the industry. It is responsible for the welfare of racehorses and the safety of jockeys and trainers, as well as ensuring fair and transparent racing practices.

In addition to its economic and cultural importance, horse racing in the UK also plays a significant role in the breeding and training of thoroughbred horses. Many of the world's top thoroughbreds are bred and trained in the UK, and the industry plays a vital role in the preservation and promotion of the breed.

Overall, horse racing is an integral part of British culture and a major contributor to the country's economy. It is a thrilling and exciting sport that continues to attract a loyal following and generate significant interest from spectators and bettors around the world.
