16:40 REVENITE
Verdict: There should be more to come from the Roger Varian-trained REVENITE, who is taken to defy a penalty for his Ascot success. Second choice is Commission, who ties in with the selection on the Ascot form. Noah David (third choice) and Big R are the other main contenders, provided they prove as effective back up in trip. The two newcomers need a check in the betting.
17:15 FIERCE
Trilby and Urban Jungle perhaps failed to do themselves justice first time out having been fairly prominent in the market, but the strongest credentials belong to FIERCE and American Belle. From a more favourable draw, preference is for Gary Moore’s colt.

17:45 LORD UHTRED
Most of the twice-raced contenders are still open to progress, most notably LORD UHTRED who was bought for a hefty sum in May and showed clear promise on turf this summer. He’s taken to open his account, with Zu Run second choice ahead of Dark Jade and Dartman. Market confidence behind Banddar, who has been absent for four months, should be heeded. Likewise the betting should help with regards to the newcomers.

18:15 LAUREL
The three previous winners all look to have very bright futures. LAUREL was extremely impressive on her debut at Newmarket in July and is the selection ahead of Pure Dignity, who scored at the same venue in June and is a half-sister to Arc winner Sottsass. One Morning could also be involved with the step up in trip a likely plus.
18:45 FLAME OF FREEDOM
Puffing and Next Chapter are unexposed 3yos who could have more to give but they are up against a pair of in-form older rivals in the shape of FLAME OF FREEDOM (nap) and Crystal Casque. The pair finished second and third behind a handicap blot here two weeks ago and Eve Johnson Houghton’s filly is fancied to gain her second C&D win.
19:15 SILVERSCAPE
The return to AW could be a positive for SILVERSCAPE, who made a promising start to his career on Polytrack, and he gets the nod. Guilin has run really well on both visits to Kempton, finishing second here most recently, and he could be the chief danger. Sooghan and Victory are other 3yos who could run well.
19:45 ALBION PRINCESS
The vote goes to ALBION PRINCESS, who looks the type to improve further and is bred to be suited by this scenario as she’s out of a dual C&D winner for her owner. A couple of other 3yo fillies, namely La Belle Vie (second choice) and Heroic Holly, also figure highly in calculations. Pablo Prince and Franco Grasso may prove best of the older runners.
20:15 HOT LEGS LIL
Progressive 3yo Brazen Idol comes here after two wins at Thirsk and could easily have more improvement to come but he faces a different test today and there are some interesting alternatives. Top of the list is well-drawn 3yo HOT LEGS LIL, who recorded her best piece of form for Joseph Tuite over this C&D and now makes her stable debut in new headgear and from a good mark. Sapphire’s Moon, who ran creditably on slower-than-ideal turf recently, and Dazzerling have also become well treated.
