After a very pleasing second on her racecourse debut over 1m2f at Nottingham, this looks a good opportunity for FRENCH MISTRESS to get off the mark at the second attempt. Kevin Philippart De Foy's charge was only beaten a neck on that occasion, finishing with a strong late run, and should come on for that experience. Fox Vision has been running with credit in handicap company of late and he can be seen to better effect now back in a maiden, while Poncho is also of interest.

It's hard to get away from FRENCH MISTRESS, who made an encouraging debut at Nottingham in May and looks sure to improve. Poncho and Fox Vision may give her most to think about.

Those with the best flashes of form have become disappointing. FRENCH MISTRESS showed enough at Nottingham to get the vote.

Having scored over C&D on her penultimate effort, LAURENTIA looks primed to get back to winning ways today. John Long's runner paid for early keenness on her latest outing over 1m4f at this venue last month, and this drop back in trip could work the oracle. Forever Proud has won twice over C&D this year and she commands respect, while Capallcliste is also likely to be on the scene.

LAURENTIA has acquitted herself well in both starts for her new yard and will appreciate the return to this shorter trip. She gets the nod. Forever Proud and Run Joy Run can also make their presence felt.

All of these come with risks. LAURENTIA is at least a recent winner and didn't appear to stay 1m4f here last time after moving well.

Ten Commitments showed a likeable attitude when scoring over 7f at Leicester last month and another bold bid can be expected, but a further 2lb rise in the ratings may leave him vulnerable to some better treated rivals. Therefore, a slight preference is for ROYAL TAPESTRY, who rarely runs a bad race and, now back on a very tempting mark, he can get his head in front. Charlie Johnston's charge won off 1lb lower over 1m at this venue last November and he can play a leading role, while Never Dream is also worthy of close consideration.

Preference is for TEN COMMITMENTS, who won a shade cosily at Leicester last month and remains on a workable mark. Never Dream and All Agleam are feared most.

Ten Commitments and Never Dream are on the up but MISTER MOJITO is taken to leave his latest Newmarket run behind him.

SUGARLOAF LENNY won over a mile here as a two-year-old and having gone close over the same distance on his last couple of outings, Bill Knight's charge looks ready for this step up in trip. Treasure Storm finished third behind the selection at Wolverhampton last time and can make her presence felt debuting for a new trainer, while Myna was narrowly beaten over today's distance at Newbury in May and a repeat effort should see him in the mix once again. Thrilling Dream and Alvesta are others to note.

SUGARLOAF LENNY has been knocking on the door and makes most appeal on the back of another fine second at Wolverhampton. Treasure Storm also arrives in good order and looks a danger, while Alvesta likely has a bigger performance in her at some point.

There are question marks about all of them and SUGARLOAF LENNY is just a hopeful choice to make a success of the step up in trip.

LANDLORDTOTHESTARS won at Southwell at the start of the year and James Evans' charge looks capable of scoring off his current handicap mark on the evidence of last month's second over this course and distance. Ring of Light will likely take advantage of a slip down the weights before long and can get involved here, while Dutch Kingdom may figure with Liam Wright's 5lb claim helping his cause. Last month's Brighton winner King Of Scotia is preferred to Mykonos St John of the remainder.

KING OF SCOTIA proved rather disappointing at Ffos Las but that may have come too soon, just five days after his Brighton success. If back on-song he could well be the answer here. Landlordtothestars returned to form back on the all-weather when finding just one too good over this C&D last month and he is second choice. Tea Sea will also be in with a shout if ready to roll following a six-month break.

Several possibles but LANDLORDTOTHESTARS (nap) bumped into one here last month and he can gain compensation.

Delta Legend made a perfect start for the Gay Kelleway stable when scoring by just under a length over C&D last month and he holds obvious claims off a 3lb higher mark under Oisin Murphy. However, the vote goes to HUL AH BAH LOO, who was beaten into fourth over track and trip last time and he was dropped 1lb for that display. With a better draw this time around and Luke Morris booked, he ought to go close. Smart Deal is another to consider.

The vote goes to HUL AH BAH LOO, who is now 12 lb lower in the weights compared to when striking over C&D in November and he shaped as though his turn may again be nearer when fourth back here last month. Delta Legend made a winning start for this yard in a C&D handicap and will be a threat, particularly if he again gets a strong pace to aim at. Smart Deal is third choice but in reality they will all have their work cut out if Valkyrian, who was second at Chelmsford on Sunday, takes his chance.

Delta Legend is greatly respected in his bid to make it 3-3 over C&D, but VALKYRIAN looks ready to gain her first AW success.

C&D winner Sir Rodneyredblood filled the runner-up spot in a classified event at Yarmouth on his latest outing and he makes his return to the handicap ranks off a workable mark. However, he could come out second best to HAVECHATMA, who returned from a 177-day break to hit the frame over 5f at Bath and she was kindly dropped 1lb for that effort. The daughter of Havana Grey is a previous C&D scorer and she can record her third career victory. Due Date is another to note.

Several to consider in this open-looking handicap. HAVECHATMA shaped well back from a break when third at Bath last month and she is of strong interest back on the all-weather. Gherkin was returning from a similar break when mid-field at Windsor in April and, like the selection, he should be sharper this time. Stuart Kittow's charge is second choice with Oisin Murphy booked, while Coast, Due Date and Jungle Run are others with claims.

Sir Rodneyredblood and Gherkin should go well but HAVECHATMA remains unexposed as a sprinter in headgear.
