Albasheer sat at the head of the Ayr Gold Cup market so it is interesting he has been diverted here. Last week's Portland effort was a cracker given his big weight and poor passage through the race, and he was just denied by Democracy Dilemma in the Beverley Bullet prior to that. However, in ANNAF, he comes up against a rival rated 9lb higher who can atone for a Haydock Sprint Cup run where nothing really went right. Relief Rally has been off since beating Adaay In Devon to second in the Carnarvon here, but is a high-class filly if ready to roll.

ANNAF escapes a penalty for his Group 2 win in Saudi Arabia early in the year and his recent comeback run in the Haydock Sprint Cup should leave him spot on for this. Three-year-olds have won 3 of the last 4 renewals and they again play a strong hand this year with No Half Measures, Relief Rally and Adaay In Devon all lively contenders.

The vote goes to RELIEF RALLY, who has a strong record over sprint trips, including at Newbury. Adaay In Devon is second choice.

This is potentially Not So Sleepy's swansong and it would be great if he could bow out with a repeat of last year's victory. He comes up against some rapidly improving four-year-olds, though, with LIEBER POWER's arguably unlucky York second boosted by the winner then going close in the Mallard. Waxing Gibbous so nearly lifted the Old Borough Cup and should be bang there again, and Ithaca's Arrow has to enter the reckoning following last week's impressive Chester triumph. The three-year-old Our Golden One is another to consider.

LIEBER POWER has been progressing well since upped in trip, splitting a pair who were ridden more prominently when runner-up at York last time, so he is taken to record a third win of the season this time around. Heading the list of dangers is Waxing Gibbous, who is respected with the potential of more still to offer, while Chillingham is also considered.

On soft or heavy ground, the best options may well be ITHACA'S ARROW (nap) and Oh So Sleepy.

Five wins and a second since joining Marcus Tregoning has seen Quietness' rating rocket by 27lb. She didn't look done with yet at Beverley latest, while Fantasy Believer arrives on a four-timer but perhaps has less scope for improvement. Flying Frontier burst back into life at Sandown, but was only half a length ahead of third home INVOLVEMENT and the Crisfords' colt is taken to gain his revenge, given he is a little more reliable. Bolster is interesting back in handicap company and Whip Cracker, who has been placed in Listed races, has been gelded since coming up short in the Britannia.

FLYING FRONTIER had Involvement behind him when scoring at Sandown last month and is taken to show he's still a step ahead of the handicapper. His old rival boasts lots of solid form this season and is second choice ahead of the thriving Fantasy Believer and C&D specialist Mustazeed.

While his supporters would need to forgive two modest displays in Group races, BOLSTER has a big shout judged on his wins this spring.

Defence Minister made it a perfect two from two when scoring readily over 6f at Haydock recently, and the son of Too Darn Hot warrants the utmost respect for his in-form stable. That said, it may pay to side with POWERFUL GLORY. The Richard Fahey-trained colt was strong in the market prior to running out a decisive winner of a Pontefract maiden on his debut last month, and he gets the vote to find the necessary improvement to land Group 2 honours second time up. Runner-up in the Gimcrack latest when bidding to make it three wins from three, the steadily progressive Shadow Of Light also merits careful consideration.

SHADOW OF LIGHT had subsequent Sirenia winner Symbol of Strength a place behind him in the Gimcrack and is taken to confirm his narrow superiority over Adrian Keatley's charge. Andesite was over 5 lengths behind that pair in the Gimcrack but that was his first run since a debut success in May and it would be no surprise to see Karl Burke's charge get a lot closer to them this time. Easy debut Pontefract scorer Powerful Glory is another fascinating contender.

Some of his rivals bring better form but highly regarded POWERFUL GLORY brings major potential. Shadow Of Light is respected.

In what looks a trappy affair, a chance is taken on last-time-out winner THE FINGAL RAVEN. The son of Mehmas impressed when coming clear of his rivals in the closing stages over 7f at Kempton earlier this month, and he looks capable of putting his relative experience to good use against some unexposed rivals. The booking of Ryan Moore aboard Stem catches the eye and the 120,000-euro breeze-up purchase is respected most out of the newcomers before market clues are known. Al Samed and Shiplake also warrant respect.

THE FINGAL RAVEN left his previous efforts behind when opening his account in decisive fashion at Kempton 17 days ago and, with his physique pointing towards further improvement, he looks up to defying a penalty. Stem and Shiplake are a pair of interesting newcomers who require close market scrutiny.

With so little form among his rivals, the most likely dangers to THE FINGAL RAVEN are the newcomers Stem and Shiplake.

One More made a pleasing start when finishing second over 7f at Kempton on his debut earlier this month, and the son of No Nay Never warrants the utmost respect in a bid to go one place better. That said, preference is for ARCTIC VOYAGE. The Clipper Logistics-owned Kingman colt is a half-brother to the very smart Lady Bowthorpe and, with the Ralph Beckett yard in fine form at present, it would be no surprise if he were precocious enough to score at the first time of asking. The King's Falcon is another noteworthy newcomer.

Not much form to go on but Richard Hannon's No Nay Never colt ONE MORE shaped well on his debut when running on into second at Kempton and can put that experience to good use here with Ryan Moore in the saddle. Newcomers Arctic Voyage (second choice) and The King's Falcon both bring a fair bit of potential and could emerge as the main dangers, with Make You Smile another debutant to consider.

One More made a promising debut, as did DRAGONFLAME. The King's Falcon and Arctic Voyage are newcomers to check out.

A brother to Group 3 winner Sangarius, AMPHIUS has yet to live up to his pedigree, but he looked on good terms with himself when breaking his duck at Beverley last month and a mark of 91 could still underestimate his potential. A seven-year-old who has run off higher marks in the past, Persuasion is entitled to be thereabouts after his Haydock success, while Harvard Sound could be anything after comfortably scoring over 7f on Lingfield's turf course on both starts since his debut. The progressive Run Boy Run and C&D winner North View are capable of being in the shake-up as well.

Cases can be made for a number of these, so it could pay to take a chance on CITY OF YORK, who was last seen in winning action when completing a hat-trick on this card last year and he turned in his best effort of the season when runner-up at Southwell earlier this month. North View got off the mark for the campaign partnered by Buick for the first time over C&D recently so heads up the dangers, while Amphius, Movie Maker and Noodle Mission all merit consideration, too.

The Newbury factor makes several runners look interesting. The suggestion is CITY OF YORK, ahead of North View.

A gelding who only ever seems to do just enough when winning, GREAT CHIEFTAIN has consistently stayed ahead of the handicapper over the summer and a 3lb rise for his most recent success at Newmarket may not be enough to prevent him landing the hat-trick. Similar comments apply to Tribal Chief after getting up late to score off 6lb lower at Epsom recently, while the consistent Kodi Lion has his first go at 1m, having shaped as though he would be suited by going up in trip with fast-finishing efforts over 7f the last twice. Completing the shortlist are Atlantic Gamble, Retracement and Sedgemoor.

KODI LION is on the up and shaped well in a competitive event at Southwell last time, so he's worth a chance to defy this mark with the 1m trip sure to suit. Great Chieftain should be on the premises and Sedgemoor needs respecting based on the big impression he made at Haydock 3 months ago.

Judged on breeding this looks the perfect first turf assignment for THORNTONLEDALE MAX. Second choice is Tribal Chief.
