ORBITAL returned to winning ways over this trip at Lingfield last month and the progressive daughter of Pivotal merits the utmost respect off just a 4lb higher mark here. Delta Legend hit the crossbar over C&D last time and could prove to be the main threat to the selection, although Persian Phoenix and Baroque Buoy are others who are capable of going very well.

PERSIAN PHOENIX has been knocking on the door and can get his head back in front. Orbital and Baroque Buoy may give Charlie Johnston's charge most to do in that order.

Top of the list is BAROQUE BUOY, who was placed behind two well-handicapped rivals over 1m last month and is unexposed over 1m2f.

PINK DIESEL displayed plenty of promise when filling third place on her debut over 7f at Newmarket last week and the daughter of Showcasing could be hard to beat with the benefit of that experience. Sahara Dancer is an obvious threat having scored on her racecourse bow at Chepstow, although a 7lb penalty for that success is a slight concern. Solano Avenue is another with valid form claims.

Although PINK DIESEL didn't obviously shape as if she'd benefit from a drop to 6f when third on her 7f Newmarket debut last week this race lacks depth so she might get away with it, particularly as likely main danger Sahara Dancer has to concede her 9 lb. Challenge Anneka may prove best of the remainder.

Pink Diesel made a good start over 7f at Newmarket but SAHARA DANCER looks a better option over this trip.

SEE YOU TONIGHT was only beaten two lengths into fourth at Kempton 11 days ago and a reproduction of that performance would give her a big chance here off a 2lb lower mark. Miss Bella Brand has been off the track since making the frame at Nottingham in May, but she should not be discounted. Happy Tears and Daytona Lady complete the shortlist.

SEE YOU TONIGHT rates the pick of these weights so is fancied to resume winning ways at the chief expense of C&D scorer Daytona Lady who didn't enjoy the rub of the green when seventh at Southwell last time out. Fellow C&D winner Miss Bella Brand also needs considering after a break.

Daytona Lady and MISS BELLA BRAND run well at this track and they can fight this out.

Son Of Wind made every yard of the running over C&D earlier in the month when improving from his nursery debut at Ffos Las. The handicapper reacted with an 11lb rise, which does make life tougher, so the vote goes to YAKFEEK. Third at Windsor on his latest start, Richard Hannon's colt is entitled to step forward from that display off what appears to be a fair opening mark. Marrakesh Express and Havana Blast are both likely to be competitive.

A trappy nursery but HAVANA BLAST rates the pick at these weights so edges the vote ahead of commanding C&D victor Son of Wind, who seems sure to go well again despite an 11 lb rise. Yakfeek and Twilight Ballet appeal as the pick of the rest.

Son Of Wind is respected despite the 11lb rise but OAKLEY BOY can gain compensation for a luckless run on his latest AW start.

Keen Interest has been kept busy in recent weeks, backing up a Yarmouth success with a pair of placed efforts. He commands plenty of respect but AMONGST THE STARS, who finished fourth on her handicap bow in the aforementioned contest, shaped with enough promise to suggest that further improvement may well be on the cards, especially stepping up in trip off a 2lb lower mark. Thunder Sparks is another to consider based on her second at Lingfield.

AMONGST THE STARS looks to have more to offer now her stamina is drawn out so rates a confident choice to get off the mark. Thunder Sparks could emerge as the main danger in her bid for a breakthrough victory, with Keen Interest not ruled out either if on song again.

Having rallied for fourth over 11.4f on this month's handicap debut at Yarmouth, AMONGST THE STARS earns the vote now up again in trip.

This can go the way of AL WASEELA, who is likely to have plenty more improvement to come after a career-best effort when fourth on her nursery bow at Leicester. A mark of 51 still looks manageable and she may have too much for Ashen Glow, who has the potential to progress for going up in trip, as well as Prada On Parole, who was a respectable fourth here over 5f last time out.

The William Haggas-trained AL WASEELA shaped quite well on her first attempt in nursery company at Leicester and gets the vote. Clipsham Noble and Telford are interesting nursery newcomers and may provide the main opposition, particularly if the betting vibes are strong. Montbeliarde would rate a big threat to all if turning out after/instead of Salisbury on Friday.

The suggestion is interesting handicap debutante TELFORD, ahead of Prada On Parole.

A winner over C&D in April, FREETODREAM bounced back to form with a highly encouraging second at Brighton and a 2lb rise for that performance could prove lenient as he looks to gain a fourth career success. That may be at the main expense of B Associates, who scored on his first start for new connections at Yarmouth last Sunday. Narrowly denied over C&D last time out, Heerathetrack is another to consider, as is Outreach.

B ASSOCIATES was quick to make his mark for the excellent James Owen team at Yarmouth and can defy a penalty at the chief expense of the handily-weighted C&D scorer Heerathetrack. In-form pair Freetodream and Outreach can also make their presence felt in this open handicap.

It looks as if B ASSOCIATES (nap) is another who has been turned around by James Owen, so a 5lb penalty may well not stop him.
