TURNER GIRL has benefited from the application of cheekpieces on her last couple of outings, going close at Catterick before going one better at Newcastle. The daughter of Mastercraftsman went up 4lb for that success and may have further improvement to come. Alshadhian had shown promise on his first couple of starts and is expected to bounce back from his latest effort at Doncaster, while Robusto and Waterloo Sunset can fight it out for the placings.

ROYAL ATHENA has remained in good heart since opening her account over this C&D in June and she could be the answer to a tricky-looking contest. Given the promise he showed on his reappearance at Leicester, Alshadhian is worth another chance now pitched into a handicap, despite failing to fire last time. He is second choice ahead of Different Tone, Robusto and recent Newcastle winner Turner Girl.

The shortlist is headed by the C&D winners ROBUSTO and Royal Athena, with Turner Girl third choice.

GIRL MAGIC has shown a liking for this track, with her last two victories coming here over 6f, and the daughter of Havana Grey, who drops back to 5f on this occasion, is expected to prove too strong for her rivals. Faustus scored at Brighton last time and is respected off a 4lb higher mark. Betweenthesticks and Cabeza De Llave are others likely to enter the reckoning.

BETWEENTHESTICKS is 0-9 this season but he has gone close on a few occasions and is appealing returned to the all-weather off a workable mark. The main danger may be posed by Faustus, who regained the winning thread at Brighton recently and remains feasibly treated. Recon Mission is capable of a bold show too.

3yo filly GIRL MAGIC (nap) made it 2-2 here (both 6f) when winning last time and should have the speed to cope with the drop back to 5f.

The drop to 6f appeared to work the oracle for TOPO CHICO with a comfortable success at Windsor last Sunday. She has to carry a 6lb penalty for that success, but the manner of that performance suggested it wouldn't be a surprise to see her back it up. A change of headgear to first-time blinkers might aid the cause of Talamanca, while Phoenix Glow and Katar complete the shortlist.

TOPO CHICO was pretty impressive starting out for a new yard when successful at Windsor last week and, on that evidence, a penalty won't prevent the follow up. Shot also arrives on the back of a winning start for a new stable and is feared most, with Talamanca and Phoenix Glow also of interest.

Provided she backs up the form of her Windsor win, TOPO CHICO looks capable of defying a penalty. Talamanca is second choice.

CAJETAN displayed a lot more promise when just denied at Salisbury last Thursday and a similar level of performance may suffice in this contest. Elmonjed, a half-brother to the highly-rated Khanjar, is a potential fly in the ointment, and any market support would make the Blue Point gelding interesting. Shayekh should prove more competitive in these calmer waters and could put his experience to good use to have a say in the finish too.

This represents a good opportunity for CAJETAN, who duly left his debut form well behind when failing by a whisker at Salisbury and entries in the Mill Reef and the Middle Park suggest that better is expected from this colt. The four newcomers are all appealing on paper, particularly Elmonjed, who possesses a speedy pedigree and hails from a leading yard. Havanagreattime has shaped encouragingly on both starts to date and he makes each-way appeal.

The strongest contender is CAJETAN, with Havanagreattime feared most. The newcomers need a market check.

BELO HORIZONTE gained compensation for his luckless third at Wolverhampton last Tuesday when winning with ease two days later at Yarmouth. Richard Spencer's gelding should have little difficulty in shrugging off a 6lb penalty on that evidence. Blue Curacao failed to fire in a first-time hood at Epsom at the start of the month, but the three-year-old can't be discounted now entering into a classified stakes contest. Sapphire's Moon has a squeak on her best form this season and completes the shortlist.

The drop to 7f isn't sure to suit easy Yarmouth winner BELO HORIZONTE but in truth against this opposition it may not prove to be a decisive factor. Blue Curacao is offered for forecast purposes.

Yarmouth scorer BELO HORIZONTE is still unexposed and taken to defy a penalty. Blue Curacao is second choice.

I'M MABLE has maintained her form with some creditable efforts in defeat since winning over an extended 5f at Brighton in June. The Michael Attwater mare now races off the same mark as that success and the ease in trip shouldn't prove an inconvenience. The five-year-old gets the nod, ahead of Sparked, who was only denied by a neck at Windsor last Monday. Imperiousity and Thank The Lord also make some appeal off their current ratings in what looks a wide-open contest.

Having pulled clear of the rest when going close at Windsor last week, SPARKED makes plenty of appeal off the same mark here with the drying ground a plus. The consistent I'm Mable is feared most, albeit cases can also be made for Thank The Lord and Imperiousity. The veteran Boom The Groom needs a second look, too.

Windsor runner-up SPARKED can go one better turned out quickly before she's reassessed. Imperiousity is second choice.
