17:00 Trail Hawk

The vote goes to TRAIL HAWK who was clear of his rivals for most of the straight over 7 furlongs at Lingfield last time, only to tire inside the final half-furlong. This drop back in distance looks a positive move. Interesting handicap debutant Never In Fourth is second choice.

Beauzon (third choice) and Rhinoplasty are worthy of respect back over this course and distance, while the unexposed pair Poet and La Feile also have possibilities in an open-looking race.

17:30 Secret Moment

A 3lbs rise should be manageable for SECRET MOMENT, who pulled just over 3 lengths clear of third-placed Onaraggatip when running well here four weeks ago. The Godolphin four-year-old is taken to go one better and open his account.

Onaraggatip may get a tad closer to the selection on the revised terms, but the second choice is Harry Love, who remains well treated off his current mark. Unexposed contenders Al Qaasim and Duty Beyond are interesting, while Port Noir warrants respect back over this course and distance.

18:00 Mount Kosciuszko

Mumcat has a good chance if bouncing back to her debut form, while Fylde Coast and Eesha Meesh are other twice-raced contenders who warrant respect on the figures. However, the suggestion is MOUNT KOSCIUSZKO, who may well improve significantly with his debut effort under his belt. It’s interesting that Jamie Spencer comes here for this one ride.

18:30 Iconic Look

Haunted Dream was very well suited by the step up to 1m 2f when impressively striding away at Chelmsford and this shorter trip raises some questions, despite him being 4lbs well in under a penalty.

Odisseo lost nothing in defeat at Kempton and is respected over this new trip, but ICONIC LOOK did well at Haydock considering she had no luck in running and she looks a strong candidate to reveal more at about this trip.

19:00 Muzaffar

Pavlodar, Foden and Outsmart bring the best form, but may prove vulnerable to improvement from the once-raced pair MUZAFFAR and Upton Park. Richard Fahey’s colt may have the most potential.

19:30 Newyorkstateofmind

Blue De Vega is likely to run his usual solid race back on Tapeta, but he went up the weights for his recent Leicester win. It might be worth going with NEWYORKSTATEOFMIND (NAP) on only his second start here, having looked well suited by the surface when a cosy winner over course and distance in August. Mondammej is also respected with the likely strong pace in his favour.

20:00 Global Romance

Only a head separated Jazzy Princess and Lucky Man at Chelmsford last time and both should go well again, with preference for the latter who got a long way back before finishing strongly. He’s second on the list, but top billing goes to the well-bred GLOBAL ROMANCE, who shaped encouragingly on her third start and is open to improvement as she moves into nurseries.

20:30 Ritchie Valens

Shining Aitch looks clearly the most likely to finish in the money and needs a lot of respect, with Out Of Reason also likely to figure on his drop back down in trip. However, a chance is taken on RITCHIE VALENS, who is too well handicapped to be ignored and has had only one race in the last four months, when 66-1. Delph Crescent is also considered.
