MISSION TO MOON, who won a valuable nursery over this course and distance last summer, won here on his seasonal debut three weeks ago and his proven effectiveness at this venue just earns him the vote in a competitive renewal. Last year's Redcar Two-Year-Old Trophy winner Dragon Leader is another must for consideration, as is Al Shabab Storm and progressive handicap debutant Balmacara. Others with place claims include Qirat, Monfrid and Newsreader.

An ultra-competitive 3-y-o handicap. QIRAT was clear of the rest when second under a penalty at Salisbury last autumn and an opening mark of 88 looks workable, particularly as there's almost certainly more to come from him this year. The Camden Colt, Brunel Nation and Newsreader are others for the shortlist. Balmacara could also have a big say.

The vote goes to AL SHABAB STORM who did well to go so close at Chester last time. He is much better drawn here.

York's Group 3 Musidora Stakes may not have gone the way of the market leaders but runner-up FRANCOPHONE certainly performed well. You can usually rely on the form of that race and this daughter of Study Of Man, who holds valuable previous course experience, is taken to come out on top. Regal Jubilee failed to land a telling blow in the 1000 Guineas but must be of interest dropping in class for this first try beyond a mile. Kitteridge and Molten Rock also hold solid claims.

REGAL JUBILEE was a bit out of her depth in the 1000 Guineas last time but this looks a much more straightforward task and she remains open to improvement, so gets the nod over Francophone, who ran well in the Musidora at York on her latest outing. Beeley is also considered.

A couple of these have shown better form than the rest, with FRANCOPHONE (nap) the choice after her second in the Musidora ten days ago.

With experience thin on the ground, the betting market should be a solid reference point. Of those with a previous run, Jakarta and Royal Equerry can only progress and support for either would be noteworthy. However, the newcomers are an appealing bunch, with JEWEL OF LONDON, a 250,000gns yearling, put forward as a prime candidate to know her job at the first time of asking. Ghost Run, whose dam was a dual Group 2 winner, is also high on the shortlist.

Experience often counts for plenty here so JAKARTA and Royal Equerry could be the pair to focus on having both shown plenty to work on in decent events at Newmarket and Salisbury respectively, the former shading the vote. The Hannon stable has won this with some good fillies over the years, including with multiple Group 1 winner Sky Lantern, so the costly Jewel of London looks the pick of the newcomers.

Experience can prove key with ROYAL EQUERRY given the nod after her fourth of seven in a Salisbury conditions event this month.

VAGUELY ROYAL bumped into a potentially useful sort when finishing runner-up over this trip at Newmarket recently and, upped 2lb, he can mark himself down as a force to be reckoned with in the staying handicap ranks. Get Shirty should appreciate this return to further on the back of a creditable third over 1m4f at Hamilton last week, and he looks the main danger, while True Legend made a pleasing seasonal return at Lingfield and he completes the shortlist.

GET SHIRTY will appreciate this step back up in trip and has dropped to a handy mark. He gets the nod in a tricky-looking contest. Vaguely Royal and True Legend are feared most.

The two most likely to give their running and lead them home are CRESCENT LAKE and Vaguely Royal.

SPACE LEGEND got off the mark in fine style over 1m2f at Leicester on his second start last month, cutting out his own fractions before readily pulling clear of his rivals, and with further improvement likely, he can bring up the double. Royal Power improved from his first start to score over a mile at Kempton in November and he is respected on his return for an in-form stable. Third in the Lingfield Derby Trial recently, Meydaan is also one to respect.

MEYDAAN acquitted himself well upped in grade at LIngfield earlier this month and looks the one to beat. Likely improvers Space Legend and Lyric may give him most to think about.

Meydaan has done clearly the most to prove his class but could still prove vulnerable to SPACE LEGEND and Lyric.

In an interesting contest full of potential improvers it may pay to side with CRYSTAL FLYER. Fourth but only beaten three lengths on her return at Sandown, the winner has since performed well in Listed class and the third won the Musidora Stakes at York giving the form a very solid look to it. Candle Of Dubai may prove to be her biggest danger after her debut second, closely followed by Loving Look, Assured and Springbecamesummer.

CRYSTAL FLYER took a big step forward when fourth at Sandown last month and, with that form proving strong, she's well worth siding with to get off the mark. Loving Look wasn't seen to best effect at Wolverhampton last time and remains open to improvement, while Loves Loving is an interesting newcomer.

The choice is CRYSTAL FLYER who has shown ability in both starts including when just behind Musidora winner Secret Satire last time.

There is plenty of early pace on show here and GRANDLAD boasts as good claims as any following his comfortable novice win on the all-weather at Wolverhampton last month. Boann drops in class and could go well despite the burden of top-weight, while Baileys Polka Dot is an outsider to consider if she can get back to her better form on her second start following a wind operation.

There should be better to come from CLOUD KING, who wasn't aided by the steady pace when a beaten favourite at Southwell and he should get a strong gallop to aim at here. Grandlad led from pillar to post when opening his account on the all-weather last time and will pose a threat if able to continue the good work now switched to turf. Kiss And Run should make her presence felt, while Rainyniteingeorgia is also of interest.

A solid pace is likely which will suit CLOUD KING, who benefited from a strong tempo when winning easily on his penultimate start.
