Cosa Sara wasn't beaten far over 1m at Carlisle last time and she appears likely to go close off the same mark. Jim Goldie's runner was denied a clear run when things started to hot up on that occasion and this looks a good opportunity to get her head back in front. War Defender is likely to be the selection's closest pursuer after struggling to recover from a slow start over 1m1f at this venue last time, while Chinese Spirit should also be thereabouts.

A winner over C&D 2 starts back, CHINESE SPIRIT again ran well when third at Hamilton 11 days ago and, in the hope they go a good clip, he could well be up to going in again. War Defender and Cosa Sara head up the dangers.

Cosa Sara looked unlucky last week at Carlisle but, with rain forecast, preference is for WAR DEFENDER (nap).

Seahorse Syd showed a likeable attitude when scoring gamely by a short head over C&D last time and while likely to run his race once again, he may be susceptible to some better treated rivals raised 4lb for that success. Therefore, the nod goes to ON BORROWED TIME. Ollie Pears' filly was only just touched off over the extended 1m1f at Wolverhampton last time and she appears to be on a dangerous mark back on turf, while Due Consideration completes the shortlist.

DUE CONSIDERATION is 2 lb better off for a short-head defeat by re-opposing Seahorse Syd over C&D last month and, having again run well when runner-up at Kempton 8 days ago, he could well be the answer. The latter-named is a threat nevertheless, with Star of Lazise, back down in grade, and On Borrowed Time also not out of things.

Slow ground would ask questions of them but SEAHORSE SYD and Due Consideration are closely matched on a recent course encounter.

The key form line in this contest appears to be a race over 5f at Carlisle earlier this month where Secret Command managed to exploit his opening mark, scoring by two and a quarter lengths, and he is likely to enter the reckoning. He may struggle to defy a 7lb rise, though, so SERGEANT MAYER, who finished second on that occasion, gets the vote. Nigel Tinkler's charge runs off the same mark and has every chance to reverse the form, while Lady Bouquet also warrants a closer look.

SECRET COMMAND proved a different proposition when making a winning nursery debut at Carlisle 9 days ago and he gets the nod to defy a rise in the weights and follow up. Sergeant Mayer, who was runner-up to the selection that day, is feared most, ahead of Musical Diva.

The ground was fast when SECRET COMMAND won at Carlisle but he might just be progressive anyway.

DIANARA displayed plenty of promise when filling fourth place on her debut at Deauville a month ago and the daughter of Goken could be hard to beat with the benefit of that experience. That said, My Clementine has a similar profile to the selection and cannot be discounted. Asteverdi also holds valid form claims, while any market support for Johnny Ringo should be noted.

DIANARA shaped encouragingly when fourth in a valuable sales race for newcomers at Deauville a month ago and she looks the one to beat with improvement to come. My Clementine could be the biggest threat having shown promise amidst greenness on her debut, ahead of Asteverdi.

It was a useful event in which DIANARA made her debut at Deauville, and she may need only to repeat the form to get off the mark.

BLACK FRIDAY returned to winning ways at Ayr last month and the eight-year-old is hard to oppose off just a 2lb higher mark. The consistent Ascot Adventure should not be underestimated in a race of this nature, but the main danger is Novak. He was progressive earlier in the season and wasn't beaten too far at Redcar last time, a performance for which he has been dropped 1lb.

The vote goes to SHOWTIME MAHOMES, who has shaped as though his turn is near in two starts since returning from a break, latterly when upped to this trip at Thirsk where he put in good late work from a compromising position. It's surely a matter of time before Ascot Adventure opens his account for David O'Meara and he is second choice ahead of Chookie Dunedin, who is lurking on a dangerous mark. Black Friday is also entitled to respect.

Black Friday should have every chance of following up his Ayr success but ASCOT ADVENTURE deserves a break.

The consistent MARBUZET gained just reward for some solid efforts when he got up late to snatch victory at Carlisle nine days ago and, with the return to this trip sure to suit, he has a live chance of following up off just 2lb higher. Bobby Shaftoe was less than a length away in third that day and is a live danger off the same mark, while Trailblazer is also feared having been placed over C&D off 9lb higher in May.

Though her stamina is by no means copper-bottomed, LECHRO nevertheless gets the nod in this trappy-looking contest. She was a shade too keen last time but looked better than ever when opening her account at Beverley previously, and there can be hope that she will get home over this trip round here in a race that could become tactical. Bobby Shaftoe and Marbuzet are likely to emerge as the main dangers.

Marbuzet is a reliable type but BOBBY SHAFTOE is not without hope of reversing Carlisle placings given how that race panned out.

The likes of The Grey Lass, Aconcagua Mountain and Bonito Cavalo are all capable of going close and each of them command respect. However, the lightly-raced three-year-olds Ski Angel and WHISKEY PRIEST could be the way to go, given both are far less exposed than their elder rivals. The latter is especially tempting off just 3lb higher than when he dead-heated at Yarmouth in July and may provide a bit of value in a wide-open contest.

GLORY HALLELUJAH's latest effort over 6f at Ripon was a laboured one but he is firmly in the reckoning based on last month's placed efforts there and at Beverley. The return to the minimum trip looks a good move. The Grey Lass looks a big threat on the back of a solid C&D effort 18 days ago, while Aconcagua Mountain is surely nailed-on for another prominent role and Lola's Moment also has claims.

Aconcagua Mountain is capable of a big run but WHISKEY PRIEST is given another chance to confirm the promise of his Yarmouth win.
