BAILAR CONTIGO has a 6lb penalty to shoulder after winning comfortably at Bath last time out and, if this race doesn't come too soon, he may well be good enough to follow up. Senseofentitlement is a big danger after running on well over shorter to score at Wolverhampton, though he is yet to win on turf. Storm Valley is also of interest and can go well if she improves for her Epsom fourth.

BAILAR CONTIGO is on a roll at present and a 6 lb penalty doesn't look sufficient to prevent him from completing a quick hat-trick. Storm Valley should be all the better for her recent Epsom fourth so could emerge as the chief threat to Stuart Williams' improver ahead of Wolverhampton 1-2 Senseofentitlement and Coloane.

Unexposed STORM VALLEY gets the verdict with this drop back in distance looking a positive. Bailar Contigo is feared most.

Smokey Malone is the only C&D winner in the field after he won off 1lb lower in May last year, and he will be running on strongly after competing over further recently. However, if THIRD BATCH gets home over this distance, she is potentially well handicapped. The booking of Tom Marquand catches the eye and, with plenty of placed form to her name, she could be the one. No Diggity was hampered before finishing fourth here on the all-weather and he may also go well.

THIRD BATCH didn't enjoy the rub of the green when seventh on the AW here last time and can capitalise on a 2 lb drop in the weights and gain a deserved breakthrough success now. Smokey Malone also wasn't seen to best effect when sixth at Nottingham so this C&D winner can have a say along with Shalfa who has made a positive start to life with Lydia Richards.

This looks tricky but SMOKEY MALONE gets the vote ahead of Shalfa and Third Batch.

Magic Memories ran his best race yet when third over the Windsor mile, and he can go close dropped back a furlong in a first-time tongue-tie. MOLAQAB may have his measure, though. He ran on well after a slow start at Doncaster to be beaten a head into third and an added furlong here looks ideal. Cover Up has to be better than his debut sixth and is well worth a market check for any signs of confidence.

MOLAQAB improved again when third at Doncaster last time, in spite of the drop back in trip, so he can open his account returned to 7f. He is taken to get the better of Magic Memories, who is also open to further progress after his third at Windsor at the beginning of the month, with Cover Up completing the shortlist.

There isn't a great deal between the main players on the figures. Slight preference is for MOLAQAB, ahead of Little Hug.

OTAGO kept on well in the closing stages at Epsom last time out, an effort for which he was subsequently dropped 1lb in the ratings. Jim Boyle's gelding is back on his last winning mark and it would be no surprise to see him to take a step forward. Covert Mission has yet to score on turf, but he's been given a chance by the handicapper and should not be underestimated. Bonus is another to consider.

Hard to be overly confident about any of the runners in this line-up, OTAGO perhaps making most appeal racing from his last winning mark after a notable mid-race move perhaps took its toll at Epsom last time. Roscioli is in decent heart and can make the frame again, with Covert Mission also interesting if able to translate his AW efforts.

Off a handy mark returned to the scene of her peak 2023 effort, ALYARA may be the answer. Otago is second choice.

Proud Fairy was a decisive winner over C&D five days ago and she merits respect under a penalty, but a chance is taken on BUGLE BEADS. The daughter of Pivotal showed clear promise across her three qualifying runs, each over six furlongs, and she can take a significant step forward now pitched into handicaps and upped in trip. Spanish Mane appeals most of the remainder.

PROUD FAIRY improved to score over a similar trip here on Wednesday and can follow up under a 5 lb penalty. The thrice-raced Bugle Beads is bred to prove better than her opening mark and shouldn't be dismissed now stepping into handicaps, whilst Renesmee shaped better than the result at Catterick last time and is also respected.

Handicap debutante BUGLE BEADS looks an interesting contender with improvement on the cards. Proud Fairy is second choice.

MORNING COLOURS did well to fill the runner-up spot here over 6f last time out, having been slowly away. Marco Botti's filly is able to compete off an unchanged mark and she could find further improvement over this extra furlong. Bear To Dream continues to run well in defeat and must go on the shortlist, while market support should be noted for Perfect Focus ahead of his return from a lengthy absence.

With cheekpieces applied, MORNING COLOURS shaped well when runner-up at this course on handicap debut 13 days ago, keeping on having not been ideally placed, and she can get off the mark back up in trip. Arbaawi had been off 5 months prior to finishing fourth behind the selection here last time, so he could be the biggest threat ahead of Bear To Dream.

Preference is for MORNING COLOURS (nap), who was runner-up here last time and is open to more progress back up in trip.
