HOT DANCER struggled in a much stronger event on his seasonal return at Musselburgh a couple of weeks ago, but Charlie Johnston's colt showed promise as a juvenile and can be given another chance in a race of this nature. Take A Breath should not be underestimated on her first start in handicap company, while It'sneverjustone edges out Shimaleyah and Patsy Snugfit to be best of the rest.

William Haggas's TAKE A BREATH showed promise in all three starts last autumn and looks capable of even better judged on her pedigree.

Archivist sets a decent standard having chased home some useful rivals on his last four starts. However, he could be vulnerable once again and marginal preference is for MISTER RIZZ. The son of Lope De Vega chased home the subsequent Esher Cup winner Fifth Column on his debut at Kempton a month ago and Ed Walker's colt could be hard to stop with the benefit of that experience. Ritaan cost 300,000gns as a yearling and any market support for her would have to be noted.

Archivist deserves to win a race, but MISTER RIZZ looked like a winner waiting to happen when runner-up on his Kempton debut.

NAKEEB confirmed the promise that he displayed on debut at Newmarket last October when filling second place at the same venue last month. A reproduction of either of those efforts would give him a big chance in this company. Competizione was behind the selection on his racecourse bow and could get closer with a tongue-tie now applied. Blue Lancero wouldn't have to be a superstar to make the frame on his first outing.

The market should be revealing regarding the newcomers, but NAKEEB sets a useful standard having been placed in two Newmarket maidens.

Danzart went in by just under a length over 7f at this venue last time and is likely to be on the premises, despite this drop in trip and 4lb higher mark. However, GEMINI STAR finished a fair third at Leicester latest and was kindly dropped 1lb. The five-year-old competes off a career-low rating and can take full advantage. Gundogan completes the shortlist.

ARANTES NASCIMENTO may still have untapped potential and he's interesting on his first outing for Gemma Tutty.

ROGUE DANCER is two from two since competing in the handicap ranks and she was arguably worth more than the winning margin suggests at Wolverhampton last month. Jack Jones' filly will need to prove as effective on turf but, if doing so, she could prove hard to beat. Chuti Manika hit the woodwork at Ripon on his most recent start and should remain competitive, while Up The Clarets is another to keep an eye on.

Chuti Manika and Rogue Dancer are feared but the vote goes to TRUST SERGEI who receives lumps of weight all round.

BAS BLEU ended last term with a victory at Kempton and returned to action with another good effort at the same track. Beaten less than a length into third, the daughter of Masar looks capable of scoring off her current mark on that evidence. Melek Alreeh has undergone a wind operation since winning at Southwell in November and he could make his presence felt, while Ludo's Landing is noted too.

The choice is BAS BLEU who has run consistently well since returning last summer and has proved she can acts on a fast surface.
Class & Speed Card
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

Precious Spartan has a shout after finishing third at Redcar last month, while Sovereign Class can fare better over this longer distance based on her second at Musselburgh. However, CALIBOS posted his best effort to date when placed at Wolverhampton on his debut for new connections. That was also his first outing in a tongue-tie and he's taken to make a bold bid to open his account.

This can go to CALIBOS (nap) who shaped at Wolverhampton last time as though stepping up in trip on a galloping track could suit him.
