The turn into the home straight presents very quickly over 5f here and, with that in mind, PRIVATE AFFAIR is handily drawn to take command from stall two. Richard Hannon's speedily-bred colt showed a lot of promise from an awkward stalls position on his debut at Newbury and could be tough to deal with if he handles switching to Polytrack. Red Savitar appeals more than Ahead Of Fashion based on their respective debut efforts, while Mwaki is the pick of the two newcomers.

The only runner who brings AW form is RED SAVITAR, who should improve on his Southwell effort. Private Affair is feared most.

A half-brother to the high-class Al Suhail, this could be an ideal starting point for the Godolphin-owned SPY CHIEF, who Godolphin secured for 750,000gns as a yearling. Given he is a son of the supremely talented but headstrong Kingman, the fitting of a hood could be a safe policy to combat any precocious fizz as he bids to make a winning debut. Amica and Spitzbergen are the most notable from those with experience, while Takteek is another debutant to keep an eye on.

Rapper's Delight has the benefit of a recent run but SPITZBERGEN looked an unlucky loser on his debut last autumn and gets the nod.

I Follow Rivers built on a promising third on his return from a break/being gelded when he scored in a tenacious manner at Wolverhampton last week. However, BIG GYPSY KING was a more emphatic winner at Chelmsford on Thursday and he could be the one to cope better with a penalty on these terms. Magna is surely better than she managed last time out and is not taken lightly. Lunanova is another with some each-way appeal.

The two penalised runners stand out, with BIG GYPSY KING shading it from I Follow Rivers having won easily at Chelmsford.

A competitive event in which a chance can be taken on ISABELLA CASTILE. The Rock Of Gibraltar filly opened her account at Windsor in October before struggling in a Listed contest next time, but she did shape with promise on her return at Newmarket last month. She'll need to prove herself on an artificial surface now but if doing so, she won't be far away. Shallow hit the frame in a class 2 at Newcastle on AWC Finals Day and she merits respect down in class, while Glamour Show and Persian Spirit are others to consider.

The market spoke strongly SO SASSY's way ahead of her Lingfield comeback and she's given another chance. Star Zia is second choice.

There has been no stopping Elterwater of late, who completed her hat-trick over the extended 1m1f at Wolverhampton last time out. She can often be keen though and with that in mind over this longer trip, DANCINGWITHMYSELF is preferred. Michael Bell has his string in fine fettle and the daughter of Phoenix Of Spain was a real eye-catcher at Ripon when making her reappearance last month. The mare was nudged up 2lb for that narrow second but progress is likely and that shouldn't be a barrier to success. Charmaine is also noted.

Dancingwithmyself is respected off the back of a solid turf comeback but CHARMAINE is taken to follow up her Southwell win.

WINSTON'S WARRIOR displayed considerable promise in a trio of novice/maiden events last year, with his best effort coming when chasing home a now 88-rated rival over 7f here in December. The son of Churchill could be well handicapped from an opening mark of 73 and Charlie Hills' colt gets the vote ahead of Pietro, who caught the eye when staying on strongly into fourth over 7f here in March. Telepathic heads the remainder.

Telepathic remains unexposed but preference is for PIETRO, who had things conspire against him on his comeback here in March.

ORCHARD was beaten only a head over 7f here on his reappearance. The winner has advertised the strength of that form by scoring again subsequently and Warren Greatrex' charge may prove the one to side with. Placed over 7f the last twice now, Saxonia won over today's distance at Newcastle before that and has to be included in calculations, while Virtue Patience landed a maiden race when upped to 7f at Lingfield and further improvement could be forthcoming.

Virtue Patience is respected but ORCHARD (nap)'s clear second here a few weeks ago looks rock solid and he gets the vote.

TRIGGERED is approaching the veteran stage, but still seems capable of winning off his current mark on the evidence of his latest start. The nine-year-old missed out by only a neck when producing a late surge at Chelmsford and looks worthy of another chance. The Spotlight Kid scored here in November and a first-time visor may bring about improvement, while El Hibri went close over 6f here recently and is not out of it either.

Two-time course winner THE SPOTLIGHT KID ran well in a higher grade here last time and earns the vote ahead of Triggered.
