Eireann Cagney got a good tune out of Saligo Bay at Chelmsford last week, although that success came a bit out of the blue so he wouldn't be guaranteed to defy his 4lb penalty. Brodie Hampson partnered Throne Hall to win at Musselburgh and in Jersey last month, but the booking of Simon Walker for RIBBLE RIVER catches the eye and Kevin Ryan's gelding can confirm the promise of his comeback third at Pontefract. Unplugged landed this prize a couple of years ago under Serena Brotherton and his Nottingham reappearance wasn't bad.

Eireann Cagney and SALIGO BAY combined to winning effect on the AW last Thursday and the 7yo also has form to be reckoned with on turf.

Earnest Belief is a full-brother to Doncaster Cup/Lonsdale Cup hero and Gold Cup runner-up Coltrane and he shaped like a stayer when fourth on his introduction at Salisbury. He is expected to come on from the run, but the winner of that race then flopped in a Newmarket event in which POLE STAR went agonisingly close. Charlie Johnston's colt was confirming the promise of his debut fourth at Chester and can make it third-time lucky. Better is anticipated from the once-raced pair Valiancy and Warrior King.

This looks to be where POLE STAR gets off the mark, following two 1m4f runs this month which make him the clear form pick.

Charlie Appleby has used this as a springboard to Group/Grade 1 glory with Ancient Wisdom and Albahr in recent seasons, so big things are expected from COMMANDING OFFICER. The 150,000-euro son of Teofilo has a good German pedigree that suggests 7f is the right trip to start him over. Morris Dancer also carries the Godolphin colours and his Newbury seventh wasn't devoid of promise. Kevin Ryan had to go to 400,000gns for Greybeard as a yearling, while royal runner Brotherhood Of Man is another interesting newcomer.

Charlie Appleby won this in 2021 and 2023 and, with his 2yos in excellent form, the newcomer COMMANDING OFFICER earns the vote.

The betting market is usually informative for races of this nature and names to conjure with include Jarham, Honved and Think Of A Name, who are all open to progression in handicaps. However, there is also plenty to like about L'KARAMA, who is a full-brother to dual Group 3 winner Greenland and he could have any amount of improvement to come now he switches to race on turf. The Rae Guest-trained Sunlit Uplands is another to keep an eye on.

The step up to 7f could be a positive move for THINK OF A NAME and he gets the nod ahead of The Childe Of Hale.

PARTICIPLE has an appealing pedigree and was only undone by inexperience when she finished second on her racecourse debut at Salisbury last August. The winner of that race has subsequently gone on win a Listed race at Newbury's recent Lockinge fixture. With improvement likely, the Ralph Beckett-trained filly can follow suit and take another step forward towards better things here. Mister Winston and Love Beach, along with stablemates Jenubiyah and Influential, all command respect accordingly representing leading stables.

Frankel filly PARTICIPLE looked very promising when beaten a nose by a subsequent Listed winner on debut at Salisbury last August.

BEST ADVENTURE finished full of running when winning at Newmarket and looks to be one of those most ready to take another step forward now his stamina is called into question further. With Oisin Murphy back in the saddle, another bold showing is highly likely. Kurakka and Is I Right also enter the reckoning on the back of winning performances and need to be taken seriously. However, the class-dropping/handicap debutant Harpsichord could be a bigger danger to the selection, especially with her stamina more proven than most here.

An interesting field is assembled but CRACKERGEE (nap) gets the vote ahead of Kurakka, Best Adventure and Atlantic Sunset.
