By John O'Riordan - ACTION PLAN can continue the fine recent form of the Gerard O'Leary stable. Just about the highest rated of these on the Flat, the Soldier's Call gelding has finished third on both starts over flights to date. Given his experience, Jack Kennedy is likely to make this a real test for the newcomers. Trainer Noel Meade does well with his juvenile hurdlers, so his debutant Mick Collins has to be of interest. Rated 79 on the level, the son of Inns Of Court is open to improvement after just the four career starts. Robbies Rock is another to consider, having shown improvement on the Flat since finishing third at Killarney on his only start over hurdles.
By John O'Riordan - Runner-up on three of his five starts over hurdles, ARCTIC GALE can make the breakthrough. A bumper winner at Fairyhouse last October, the Emmet Mullins-trained five-year-old has shown enough since going jumping to suggest he can win a race of this nature. A reproduction of his Galway run in particular would make him hard to beat in this company. Unbeaten point-to-point and bumper winner Kish Bank rates a serious threat. The Gordon Elliott-trained gelding was an impressive winner of his sole start between the flags, while the form of his subsequent bumper win has worked out nicely. Lightly raced mare The Diddler is another that should be involved having shown ability in her short career to date.
By John O'Riordan - OSCARS BROTHER can credit former champion apprentice Connor King with a first winner in the training ranks. A thorough stayer, the six-year-old shaped well for his previous trainer when runner-up over this trip in January before opening his account next time at Limerick. Although softer ground would undoubtedly be preferable, the gelding was second on good ground in a point-to-point. Dual winner Femme Magnifique sets the standard off a handicap mark of 119. The Willie Mullins-trained mare made all when easily winning at Downpatrick in June. Point-to-point winner Millforce made a winning debut under rules for Gavin Cromwell at Bellewstown. The son of Workforce has to be respected for his in-form yard.
By John O'Riordan - The only previous winner over fences in the race, SOMEONE'S WISH can maintain his unbeaten chasing record. Gordon Elliott's four-year-old stayed on strongly under Jack Kennedy when opening his account at the first time of asking at Downpatrick last month. Following a recent spin on the Flat in the student derby, the gelding should be primed for this assignment. Noble Talent ran a big race when runner-up on his chasing debut at Sligo recently. Sure to be all the better for that experience, the one concern is that he drops back nearly half-a-mile in trip here. Chasing debutant Ah Remy Martin was just about the best of these over hurdles. If he takes to the larger obstacles, the Thomas Gibney-trained gelding should go very close.
By John O'Riordan - Despite a tendency to misbehave at the start, DOLLAR VALUE is a tough, admirable performer on a going day. Trainer Tom McCourt has his dual purpose string in excellent form right now and the nine-year-old is a hard horse to peg back if getting an easy lead. A galloping flat track such as this one should really play to his strengths. Grange Walk has to be a contender on his return to fences. A decent handicapper at his best, the John Patrick Ryan-trained gelding can sometimes make mistakes at critical points in a race. Granted an error free round, the nine-year-old has every chance. Topweight The Banger Doyle shouldn't be far away having finished runner-up at Listowel last month.
By John O'Riordan - NOBLE BIRTH can make a winning stable debut for trainer Gavin Cromwell. Three times successful over hurdles for Eric McNamara, the seven-year-old is nicely treated off a 4lb lower chasing mark. Runner-up on his first start over fences in Killarney in August, the gelding was hampered by a faller when down the field at Galway after. Switched straight into handicap company after just the two runs, that decision can be rewarded. Hand Over Fist shouldn't be far away for the Henry De Bromhead yard. A winner over fences at Kilbeggan in August, the seven-year-old was still in front when falling two out at Downpatrick next time. Runner-up on her last two outings, Bella Bliss, should again be competitive for trainer John McConnell.
By Mark Nunan - John and Thomas Kiely were on the mark with an easy bumper winner at Tramore on Thursday and the yard can strike again in this category with Galway winner MEITHEAL. The Imperial Monarch mare beat a well-fancied Willie Mullins inmate at Ballybrit after finishing second on her first two starts at Wexford. Touched off over 2m4f on debut, there are no concerns about her stamina as she steps back up in trip and she can cope with racing against geldings for the first time. Shock Galway festival winner Brave Crogha ran respectably under a penalty at Killarney while Faceman, out of Solerina and a half-brother to four winners over jumps, showed promise on debut when third over 2m4f at Listowel.
By Alan Magee - MIRACLE BEAUTY had fellow newcomer Misappropriation two lengths back in fourth, with the slow starting Never Not Lucky seventh, when runner-up to Carla Ridge over course and distance last month. The Joseph O’Brien-trained filly was putting in her best work at the finish and with the benefit of that outing may prove difficult to beat. Aidan O’Brien introduces two daughters of No Nay Never and riding arrangements suggest Brightest Star is preferred to Smiling. Cold Hearted would come into calculations if reproducing her debut third to Sparkling Sea and Fairy Godmother here in April but has disappointed on both outings since.
By Alan Magee - BOUNTY is bred to be speedy being by No Nay Never out of Cheveley Park Stakes winner Rosdhu Queen and was prominent throughout when beating all bar Fregada on debut in an 18-runner maiden over this trip at the Curragh. Aidan O’Brien’s juveniles usually progress from a run, and this looks a good opportunity to open his account. Ohmali showed early pace before dropping away into mid-division in that Curragh maiden, while Iceford and Source Code both indicated some ability on debut and should progress. Any market move for Ze Do Asfalto would be interesting.
By Alan Magee - Joseph O’Brien holds a strong hand here and riding arrangements suggest DIGNAM is preferred to Sigh No More. The selection confirmed the promise of his initial two outings when landing the odds at Tipperary and now takes a drop in class and distance after weakening in the closing stages over 1m1f in a Group 3 at Chantilly. Sigh No More beat Saint Brandon in a Galway Festival maiden and followed up at Roscommon, while Bodhi Bear made a promising debut over course and distance last month and should confirm places with Gangsta Man. Rion Rubette showed promise when runner-up to Rebel Diamond here over 6f but needs to bounce back after a disappointing effort at Fairyhouse, while Fiona Maccoul should appreciate this step up in trip.
By Alan Magee - SAKTI appears versatile in terms of ground conditions and gets the vote to add to a Dundalk maiden win this spring. The Ger Lyons-trained filly has performed with credit on all three outings since and her close up fourth in the Group 3 Snow Fairy Stakes at the Curragh last time has been advertised since. Azada has been lightly raced since a creditable reappearance behind Fallen Angel in the Irish 1,000 Guineas and she may have found an extended 1m1f too far at Gowran last month. Goldana seems best with cut in the ground and could prove the pick of Joseph O’Brien’s five runners, although Princess Child has filled the runner-up spot on her latest three starts in Listed races.
By Alan Magee - ROMZINA won a Cork maiden on her belated debut at Cork in August and had Belhaven, Andromeda, Galileo Dame and Snowcapped all behind when placed on her only subsequent start in the Listed Oyster Stakes at Galway. She ran quite freely on that occasion and hopefully the application of a hood will help her to settle a bit better. Caught U Looking has proved a model of consistency this year and possibly put up her best performance over this trip when fifth behind You Got To Me in the Irish Oaks with Lope De Lilas about eight lengths behind. Siege Of Troy seemed to appreciate the step up to 1m4f when beaten less than two lengths in the Give Thanks Stakes at Cork.
By Alan Magee - COMFORT ZONE won three times in juvenile hurdles and while without a victory in nearly two years, has given cause for optimism. The dual-purpose gelding beat all bar Satin in the Petingo Handicap at Leopardstown on his only Flat start last year and ran a cracker in another valuable handicap this summer when third to The Wallpark in a 2m6f hurdle at the Galway Festival. He had a couple of these behind when a creditable seventh last time in the Irish Cesarewitch. Chemistry is an obvious threat having beaten all bar stablemate Fighter in this year’s renewal of the Petingo while Pinot Gris, Man O Work and Jabbar are others for the shortlist.
By Mark Nunan - Successful over 1m1f at Leopardstown during the summer, BEAR PROFIT has run respectably since and was back to something like his best when second over this trip at the Curragh. Reapplied cheekpieces seemed to work well then and it's a slight concern that the headgear is now left off, but he represents an in-form yard and his capable young rider's presence in the saddle is another positive. Nunc Est Bibendum was four lengths behind the selection when third at the Curragh but is open to improvement while four-time winner Red Trail, who found 1m4f too far last time, was touched off over course and distance in August and can turn around form with the winner Chicago Storm.
By Mark Nunan - CLOUD SEEKER has been well placed by the Slatterys this season and can complete a four-timer. The Masar gelding, who stays a good bit further, tends to do just enough to score which has meant a cumulative rise of 15lb for his three wins. Last seen when landing a valuable prize on the Tapeta surface at Newcastle in August, his prominent style of racing will be handy in this small field. Lord Church was bidding for a four-timer of his own when third over this trip at the Curragh. He returns from a break and may be capable of resuming progress. Old Faithful went close off this mark in a premier handicap in July but has been well held since. %0A%0A
- Innisfree Lass was a facile winner on her latest outing over 3m at Southwell last time and she makes appeal on her first chase start, but slight preference is for ALFIE'S PRINCESS. Sam Thomas' charge runs off the same mark as when second over timber at Newbury in March and on her first start over the larger obstacles, she can go one better. Smiling Getaway is next best.
- WICKED THOUGHTS has shown plenty of ability in his three starts under Rules to date and he can get off the mark at the first time of asking over obstacles on his seasonal reappearance. Plenty of improvement can be expected from Paul Nicholls' runner and he makes most appeal. Rosscahill appears to be an interesting recruit for the Nigel Twiston-Davies team after his point-to-point success last year and he is considered, while Neo King is fancied to follow them home.
- MOVEIT LIKE MINNIE got off the mark at the first attempt over larger obstacles when scoring at Stratford last month and he can put that experience to good use. Asta La Pasta had been progressing nicely last season over hurdles before struggling to land a blow in Grade 3 company, and he makes plenty of appeal, while Ito Ditto heads the remainder.
- Sam Thomas has two interesting representatives in the Dovecote winner Lump Sum and STEEL ALLY, with preference for the latter. The six-year-old posted a solid third in the Novices' Championship Final at Sandown in April and he looks just the type to keep improving. Pembroke's novice chase campaign last season didn't end up as forecast, but he shouldn't be underestimated operating off a lower mark over hurdles.
- At first glance a 10lb hike appears to be on the harsh side for I'M ON MY WAY following her narrow victory at Southwell in March but, with the second and third undefeated in three subsequent outings, Neil Mulholland's mare looks capable of following up. The selection's stablemate Abbeyhill was also on an upward trajectory last season and it will be interesting to see how the seven-year-old compares in the market. Lady Harriett and Shesupincourt are also noted.
- JOHNNY MAC is a chaser on the upgrade having won all three starts since joining Matt Sheppard's yard. He defied a 10lb rise when beating a subsequent dual winner at Leicester in January and the nine-year-old can continue winning ways having gone well fresh in the past. Supposedtobe produced a late rally to take third at Fontwell last month and has a shout off the same mark in this lower grade, while Hokelami is worth a second glance on his reappearance.
- TAMARIND BAY showed enough to suggest he can win a bumper at this level when finishing runner-up at Kempton on his racecourse debut. The four-year-old has switched yards since disappointing at the same track in March and a bold bid is anticipated. Desert Halo is another likely improver based on last year's second at Ballinrobe, while Kate Of The Lodge won an Irish point-to-point in good style and debuts under Rules with a shout.
- In what looks a competitive affair, JUDGEMENTOFSOLOMON gets the tentative vote. He ran out a comfortable winner over 2m1f at Pontefract in first-time cheekpieces (retained) on his penultimate start and, despite a low-key effort over an extended 2m at Southwell latest, he gets the vote to return to winning ways now switched back to turf off 4lb higher than his last winning mark. Recent course winner (1m3f) Clever Relation looks a fascinating contender tackling a marathon trip for the first time, while Poncho is also noteworthy.
- This looks a good opportunity for the progressive QETAIFAN to add another victory to his CV. Andrew Balding's charge impressed when fairly bolting up over 6f in testing ground at Chester last month and, with further improvement likely, he looks the one to side with under a penalty. Wicket Keeper shaped with plenty of promise when finishing third over this trip at Newbury on his debut last month and it would be no surprise if he were to emerge as the main danger to the selection, while Great looks an interesting newcomer on paper.
- BALDOMERO impressed when making virtually all in rain-softened ground over an extended 6f at Doncaster on his penultimate start and, after shaping like he was still in form when finishing sixth in a competitive Ripon sprint handicap latest, he gets the vote to return to winning ways with his sights lowered today. Alcazan looks the main danger to the selection despite being upped 6lb for her recent victory over the minimum trip at Ascot, while Wodao is also noteworthy easing in grade.
- Having justified strong market support on his nursery bow at Salisbury last month, UP THE PACE looks capable of following up. A 5lb rise in the ratings is far from insurmountable for the Sands Of Mali colt and he's taken to fend off the threat of Tactical Plan. Ed Dunlop's gelding arrives on the back of a solid second at Haydock and another prominent showing is forecast off just a 2lb higher mark. Emporess can chase the pair home.
- CASTLE GATES found only the unbeaten Hopewell Rock too strong in testing conditions at Bath 12 days ago and he's likely to prove a warm order. The Godolphin-owned colt should relish today's similar ground conditions and a breakthrough victory could be on the cards. Karthon, a half-brother to Group 3 all-weather winner Berlin Tango, is a potential fly in the ointment on his opening bid. Andrew Balding's juvenile is feared most, ahead of fellow newcomer Ashdown Forest.
- This looks a tricky puzzle to solve and a chance taken on RHOSCOLYN, who has won four times at this venue. David O'Meara's charge won over C&D on his penultimate outing off just 2lb lower and, should he be revived by the return to this track, he could take some beating. Alpha Crucis won as he liked over 1m1f here last month and he can offer another bold bid, but a 9lb hike may not be easy to defy. Similar comments apply to Marcella, who has gone up 7lb for her two-length Epsom triumph.
- PHOENIX PASSION was only narrowly beaten when second over 1m at Newbury last month and this represents a good opportunity for him to go one better. Ed Walker's charge has continued to progress since scoring over this C&D in May and a 1lb rise for his latest effort may prove lenient. Windcrack arrives here seeking a hat-trick after back-to-back 1m wins at Sandown but a further 3lb rise for a neck success last time may just halt her progression, while Ziggy's Phoenix also makes appeal.
- BE A NICE GIRL (3) could be the answer to this open race. She was highly tried in a Grade 1 race over hurdles in Italy on her latest run when she was fifth. Back over fences, she can give a good account of herself. INZEO DU GOUET (1) can make the selection work hard for success and is a winner over fences at this track before. DIFFLY RIVER ANN (2) won a claiming chase last time at this track in September and can be involved. IMPAIR ET PASSE (8) is also worth considering.
- OLYMPIC STORY (1) has won all three starts and won narrowly when last seen in a Grade 3 hurdle at this track last month. She beat ZAINE (5) that day, who is better off at the weights by one kilo. Both fillies are smart and it looks like a race between the two of them. SOBRIQUETTE (6) was back in fourth in the same race and although she has ground to find she can be competitive. LAFAYETTE (2) makes up the shortlist.
- L'ARRABIATO (8) has had two good third-placed efforts of late, the latter at Craon in a Listed chase in late September. He is marginally preferred to MARVEL DE CERISY (1) who has top weight to contend with but is expected to be competitive. JUMPING CHARLIE (5) shaped well over hurdles last time and is a winner over fences in the past. She has each-way claims. SIX ONE (4) looks the best of the remainder.
- FICTION DU BERLAIS (2) has decent form at this track and was a good third on her penultimate race in a Class 1 hurdle in late April. She is preferred to JOANA CONTI (3) who scored three runs back at this track in a Class 2 handicap hurdle in late February. BELISMA (10) looks like a safe option for the each-way backers to take seriously. JOUVANCELLE (8) shaped well over fences last time at this track and has placed form at this track over hurdles before.
- NIETZSCHE HAS (1) lost his unbeaten when he was fourth in a Grade 3 hurdle at this track on September 19th. That was his first run for four months so he will strip fitter and improve from that. LOVEMEC DE HOUELLE (5) looks like the main threat. He ran well when third in a Listed hurdle last month and has more to come. DJIN'S (2) won the Grade 3 hurdle beating a large portion of the runners that oppose again today and is sure to be on the premises. KIVALA DU BERLAIS (8) heads the remainder.
- BON GARCON (4) was a good second last time at this track when beaten narrowly by what looks to be his main rival today WINSTONPRESIDENT (3). The latter is better off at the weights this time which bodes for another tight finish. KANDY PARK (6) has been in good shape over hurdles of late with two wins. The most recent was over this track in a Listed hurdle and he has run well over fences on his two runs so far. ZARFLIGHT (2) is also worth a mention.
- MIDNIGHT EXIT (4) won beating a useful rival on her debut at Clairefontaine in mid-June on her sole run. She will be fit and ready after a short absence. TARINA (1) has won both of her runs, the latter a Class 2 hurdle last month at Compiegne and she will make the selection work hard. WEBCAM (5) is improving and looks like a solid option each way. LA PALMERAIE (6) makes up the shortlist.
- JET BLUE (3) has solid form on the flat recently and won a Group 3 AQ race in March and has run two decent races since then in Group 3 AQ races. He was third on his second run-over hurdles last November. He gets the vote ahead of KAYO COCO (7) who won a Class 3 hurdle last time in September at Le Lion D'Angers. KALASHI (4) looks like one for the each-way backers to side with. KREATION ALLEN (5) warrants respect and should be involved at the business end.
- MERANO (3) posted an impressive display when demolishing the opposition at Vichy last month in a maiden. He is clearly on the up and warrants the utmost respect. SPANISH PRINCE (4) was nothing short of impressive when he won first time out at Mont de Marsan and could be anything. SWEET CHOP (1) is as consistent as they come and is expected to be closely involved too. ALOYSIUS (2) steps down in grade and is not out of it.
- MON CHAMPION (3) has demonstrated a nice potential over hurdles and looks a serious proposition on his chase debut. He gets the vote ahead of CHANCE DE BALLON (5), who was far from disgraced in a better class of a race at Compiegne last time out. SALUT DOC (2) has a nice progressive profile and should be included in calculations. I WALK THE LINE (4) hinted at ability last season but returns from a long break.
- MY HOPE (3) completed her hat-trick with a stylish, wide-margin last-start success at Toulouse last month and her 4,5kg penalty is unlikely to halt her momentum. LUNATICOS (9) has sound references, including 2nd-place finishes in consecutive recent starts, to pose a threat, though the same applies to consistent duo GLORIETTE SAN (10) and SPANISH LIGHT (5). Of the remainder, COMMANDER'S WAY (2) and POCA GEN (1) makes most appeal.
- SOL AND RIVER (3), runner-up in both starts, is undeniably talented and needn't improve a great deal to go one better. However, MERCI MAMAN (2) and MOLLY DE BURGE (6) have shown enough to suggest that they can pose a threat to that rival. Consistent MANAVA (1), improving LALOCO (8) last-start winner EMID'IO PEPE (4) can also have podium aspirations.
- Runner-up in 2 of her last 3 starts, including her most recent outing off this mark, KHELLE TARTARE (8) is good value to reconnect with success. Veteran AL RASSOUL (10) has regained momentum and will fight for victory on the evidence of his reassuring last-start 2nd. to chance to defend. Both ELLECOEUR DRALLIV (15) and TERRE SACREE (14) are unreliable but retain sufficient means to compete for a spot on the podium. DREAM ANGEL (3), WHIP DRALLIV (1) and TERRITORIO (13) appeal most of the remainder.
- THECLIMB (3) and NOROLLES (8) have displayed exemplary consistency in this class and could find themselves fighting for victory. After reassuring recent performances, both TARCENAY (10) and FAL DARA (16) remain competitive for a spot on the podium. CULTURE (13) is ideally suited by this track and trip, so he ought to acquit himself competitively. MONA LISA (15), who will get ground conditions to suit, and GREAT PROMISE (4), complete the shortlist.
- NOIRE DESIRE (8) has regained momentum and lines up here with legitimate winning ambitions after two encouraging recent displays. LOVING STAR (13) is not the most consistent but did not go unnoticed in her penultimate start. She has a winning chance in a field of this nature. SORIANE (15) and BECQUANON (7) have nothing to prove at this level and remain competitive for the places. LONG KE WAN (6), CADE'S (9) and MANA MAHA (2) appeal most of the remainder.
- IM THE DIRECTOR arrives here seeking a hat-trick after a game success over 4 1/2f at this venue last month and he looks primed to confirm the form with the reopposing Annapolis Road (second) and John's Notion (third). Juba's Heart holds each-way claims.
- DUNCAN IDAHO showed a likeable attitude when scoring over C&D on his penultimate start and should he bounce back to form, he will be a tough nut to crack. Pork Chop Pete and Honeyquist may also feature.
- The ultra-consistent ROBBIELIKESHIM has won two of his last three outings and he looks primed to get his head in front once more. Soul Catcher and You Bet A Fortune can also have a say.
- DIRECT THE CAT has been in fine form of late and is readily forwarded as the one to be with. What'shername and Shewonttalktome can fight it out for second spot.
- A game winner at this level in mid-September, DIAKONISSA has solid credentials and could take some stopping. Hale Bop rates the chief threat to the selection, although Zip Start won impressively here last month and is another taken seriously.
- TEACHINTHERELEASE, who is a previous C&D winner, along with Social Chic and Juba's Hat Trick are suggested as the trio to concentrate on, with the first-named appealing most back over 7f.
- HESSICA did it well when scoring over C&D in August and she should be tough to stop with a repeat of that effort. Overnight Pow Wow and Great Spirit can also go well.
- This represents a significant ease in grade for JUBAWITHATWIST and he gets the vote to take full advantage. Muad'dib and Runaldo are also key players.
- Dual stakes winner SOMEDAY IS TODAY might have struggled on her seasonal return in June but it would come as no surprise were she to bounce back with that run under her belt. Juba's Parade is feared most, while Change The World looks next best.
- MAGGIE'S GIRL scooted clear over C&D last time and a similar level of performance can see her go in again. Stryda and Mendys Honey are feared most.
- The consistent MALIBU BRAD just gets the vote ahead of Kirill The Thrill and Ultimate Fighter in an open event.
- FREEDOM LASS can make amends for her narrow defeat last time by beating Star Wisher and April's Gem to the victory
- Whole Lotta Lute and Ice Axe could go well but the vote goes to SHAMAN SEZ, who drops in grade.
- RIVER REDEMPTION sets the standard based on his win last time, although Auspicious Style and Wicked Suprise should not be discounted.
- The in-form LUNDBERG is hard to oppose, while Went West edges out Eli's Promise to be best of the rest.
- AMERICAN MAYHEM's recent course win just gives him the edge over Battle Scars and Golden Bandit.
- Where Ya At Vince and Good Apple make the shortlist but preference is for WILLIE BIRD after he got off the mark here last time.
- SHARP STICK can go one better than his second here last time, possibly at the main expense of All Choked Up and Even The Wind.
- LOST SUNSET is hard to oppose following her seven-length win here last month. Others to note are Written Consent and Think Blue.
- GOOD TEMPER was fourth on her debut in a deeper event than this over 6f here last month and she could be the one to beat. Mezcalifornia and Spun Up head the dangers.
- LEND IT TEWMEY had Tap The Candy (third) behind when he was second at Churchill Downs last time and can confirm that form to go one better. Refuah completes the shortlist.
- SHIDABHUTI could only manage fifth in Grade 1 company at Saratoga in August, but this looks a much more suitable opportunity. Speedy Traveler and Tough Street might give him the most to be concerned about.
- NECESSITY showed a fair amount of ability to make the frame on her debut over 7f here last month and she gets the vote. Starry Night and newcomer Winter's Legacy are others to watch out for.
- This represents a considerable drop in grade for GILMORE, which can help him to regain the winning thread. Ember and Right Tone could also have a say.
- BROADWAY BOOGIE beat Lucky Combination (third) when she was second here last time and that looks the key piece of form to focus on. Queen Regent is another to note.
- ANYWHO made the frame in Grade 3 company at Del Mar in August and if she can reproduce anything like that effort, she could prove very tough to beat. Upper Case and Pistol are next best.
- STAR OF MYSTERY followed up her third at the top level with a victory in a Grade 3 event at Saratoga on her most recent start and those performances make her the one to beat. Roses For Debra and Future Is Now could also get involved.
- HARRODSBURG has competed in much hotter contests than this the last twice and he might be able to capitalise on this weaker event. Chattalot and Durante also merit consideration.
- DONATE LIFE (second) got the better of Romantic Story (third) when the pair met over C&D recently, and the former can confirm her superiority over that rival en route to victory this time around. Spoils Of War is also respected.
- This represents a significant ease in grade for the unexposed AUNT MARGARET, and she gets the vote to take full advantage. Lance's Smile and Quiet Dancer are respected most out of the remainder.
- PEPPERMINT CLASS was denied in the shadows of the post over this track and trip last month and, in what looks a winnable affair, she looks well capable of going one place better. Stage Call and Once An Eagle can also go well.
- POINT DUME has some strong form to his name at this venue and he's taken to regain the winning thread. Minister For Magic and Parkerness can give the selection most to think about.
- WON AN AWARD lost little in defeat when a close-up second at Monmouth last month and compensation could be on the cards. Fierce And Strong and St. John's head the dangers.
- HIYA LOVE offered plenty to work with on her debut second over track and trip last month and she is marginally preferred to the in-form Curb. Over My Cents and Missy's Map are two newcomers who require a market check.
- CALL ME ANDY took a big step forward at Churchill Downs on his return to action and there looks more to come at this lower level. Blue Kingdom and Guardian Prince are others for the shortlist.
- JUST CALL RAY won nicely in this grade on his latest start and looks the one to side with on the strength of that form. Uninvited Guest and Frightland are viable alternatives.
- Although BLIND EYE remains a maiden after 18 attempts, he arrives on the back of two fine seconds and rates as the one to beat. Ike's Gamble and Chevy Man will be waiting in the wings if the selection fluffs his lines.
- She Will Dance would have a chance if she can get back to her better form, but she may have to settle for third if the consistent pair of recent third Lucky In Love and regular placer I WANT RUFFLES run to their best.
- Easy maiden winner ROYAL BROWNE looks interesting after just the three starts and although he does need to take another step forward, there may be improvement to come. Prince Of Troy was beaten less than a length earlier this month and is another to consider alongside Rose Collector, who could appreciate this company more than most.
- Bolt Of Paradise won her maiden last time out and she may be the one to make FOREST FUEL pull out all the stops. Second in a similar race last month when showing plenty of speed, she may go one better now. Tres Francais and Sassy Annie are others to consider.
- This represents a fair drop in grade for HYTECK PRINCE, which can help him return to winning ways. Social Acceptance and Gun Right are others to watch out for.
- BINGO'S ESPRESSO accounted for her nearest rival by three lengths over 5f here last time and she might improve for this step back up in trip to complete a hat-trick. Exclusive Champion and Postino's Prophecy also merit consideration.
- ATTRAYANT has made the frame on each of his last three outings, including over an extended mile at Monmouth Park last time, and he can be rewarded for his consistency on this occasion. Runningthenumbers and El Alacran could also have a say.
- Miami Moonlight and Red Mountain are two solid options to consider but SPECIAL MEMORY takes a significant enough drop in class to suggest he can hold the opposition at bay in this company.
- LADY YELLOWSTONE looks the safest proposition on the back of finishing runner-up here. Courageous Cappen has a shout on the pick of her form, while Predicting should find life easier in this lower grade.
- SUPERCENTS may edge this on recent form as she drops in class with every chance. Pearly went close in this grade last time, while Pure Connection is worth a second glance in this lesser company.
- GO LAUREN GO is edging closer and looks to have been found a good opportunity to open her account. The newcomers One Eye Super Fly and Imamidnightspecial may give the selection the most to think about.
- LEGEND'S JOURNEY and Right Cider look set to dominate proceedings, with the former edging the vote in receipt of 4lb. Smiling Time can chase the pair home.
- DARING REASON lost little in defeat when a close-up second here last month and a similar performance may suffice. Smackdown and Johnny Appleseed top the list of threats.
- Although bombing in seventh here last time out, CALLITFATELUCKARMA could be worth chancing if judged on her debut second here the previous month. Raspberry Martini and Secret Verse are viable alternatives.
- LEA ME BE boasts a good record from his exploits in 2024 and rates a key player here. Axton and Stellar Tap can go play strong roles in a race where the betting should be informative.
- Miz Rithym and Fella's Sister command respect on the back of improved performances but MAYBE DOLCIE wasn't beaten far when second over C&D last time out and can go one better in this company.
- Cases can be made for plenty of these on their better form, but none more so than MISS MEAGHER, an ex-Irish daughter of Galileo Gold who missed the start on her US debut. A level break may see her home in front, though the ex-French Montjica and September second Cornelia Fort will look to pounce if she messes up again.
- Some of these are beginning to run out of excuses, including Mirahmadi, who is admirably consistent but may have to settle for yet another place. Shofner was an expensive purchase as a yearling and can only improve after his one start, but MAGNIFY has the form in the book. Runner-up on his second outing at Del Mar in August, he could go one better here.
- Some of the classier horses in this field would have better chances were this over further and they may be outpaced early doors before running on late. SASSY NATURE is a sprinter through and through and that may be enough to see her hold off all her rivals here, who are headed by Back On Track, Grand Slam Smile and Diamond Bar Gal at these weights.
- UNBREAKABLE TRUST offered plenty to work with when second on debut at Del Mar in August and any improvement could see him open his account. Soi Ngern and Snowdonia are feared most.
- It is hard to look past BARTHOLDY, who has some strong maiden form to his name. Just Before Dawn is a potential fly in the ointment on debut, with Sully best of the rest.
- This represents a drop in grade for LEOPARDESS and her class may outshine these rivals. Amelia Bleu and English Danger have the form to feature too.
- Little separates PUSHINESS and Nokie, with the former shading the verdict in receipt of 1lb from her elder. The returning Don't Ju Forget can chase the duo home.
- NUCLEAR arrives on the back of a strong third at Del Mar and a similar performance is likely to suffice. Russells Hustle and Empire's Classic may give the selection most to think about.
- It may pay to persevere with WISHES TO RICHES, who posted a close-up second at Del Mar in August. Tiz Lissett and Tiny Prancer are viable alternatives.
