After not getting home over the extended 2m here, MIDNIGHT LION relished the drop back in trip when staying on to win well over 1m2f at this venue last week and this extra yardage should be no issue on that evidence. A 5lb penalty puts Iain Jardine's gelding on a mark of 67 for his double bid, but he was rated 81 after landing a Goodwood maiden last summer and still looks feasibly treated. Gastronomy was only denied by a neck over this C&D last Monday and he appears to be the main threat off the same mark, although Extinction is also respected on the back of a near-miss at Southwell.

GASTRONOMY has slipped in the weights since joining Philip Kirby and shaped encouragingly here last week, going down only to a better positioned rival, so just gets the verdict over the penalised Midnight Lion. Extinction can complete the placings.

Unexposed over this trip, EXTINCTION's comeback second three weeks ago has worked out well since. Gastronomy is next best.

We Still Believe has been running well in defeat and should have his say again, but he has no margin for error off top weight and was behind the reopposing Scarriff (second) when fourth over this C&D last week. MARTIN'S BRIG may be better treated at present and he is taken to record a second course victory. Having only gone up 2lb for a 1m success here last month, he found 7f too sharp last time and should be much better suited by this longer trip.

WE STILL BELIEVE has a pretty solid record over this C&D and is taken to turn the tables on Scarriff, who was ahead of him in second over C&D last week. Hot Team ran well at Catterick a couple of weeks ago and is also on the shortlist along with Martin's Brig, who goes well here but has stamina to prove over this distance.

Money for Federated would be interesting but otherwise SCARRIFF is given the chance to build on last Monday's big-priced second.

ABRUZZO MIA only missed out on a C&D double by a neck when runner-up last time and although he has gone up 2lb for that effort, the form has been boosted by the fourth and sixth winning since. The Michael Dods-trained gelding looks set for another bold bid, but Waiting All Night should pose a big threat if coming on for an encouraging third at Southwell on his seasonal reappearance three weeks ago. Bicep also returned with a promising effort at that same venue and he could improve for that pipe-opener too.

PRAIRIE FALCON is well treated on his best form and shaped well when second over C&D last time, so he's preferred to Bicep, who also only found one too good on his latest outing. Abruzzio Mia, a stablemate of the selection, is another one to consider.

The selection is BICEP who has winning form over C&D and went close on his reappearance at Southwell last month.

DYRHOLAEY has looked above-average in winning both his starts this year, particularly at Wolverhampton last time when powering clear for a five-and-a-half-length success over 6f. He boasts enough speed to be able to cope with this drop to the minimum trip and makes more appeal than Karl Burke's Southwell scorer Indicate. You can throw Queen's Guard into the mix as well.

DYRHOLAEY maintained his 100% record and took his form up a notch when running out an authoritative winner at Wolverhampton 6 weeks ago. The drop to the minimum trip will hold no fears on that evidence and he looks a big player again despite conceding weight all round. Indicate proved a different proposition on his return and is considered with the prospect of more to come, whilst Queen's Guard and Exceed Now are others worth a second look.

Dyrholaey may be up to defying a double-penalty down to 5f but is taken on with EXCEED NOW, who shaped nicely on debut last autumn.

The eye is immediately drawn to TEN DIMES and she should take some stopping for a powerful Newmarket yard. The daughter of No Nay Never was restless in the stalls here on debut in November and did well to claim a silver medal on that occasion. She has been given plenty of time and should be more streetwise now, so she can get the better of Radiant Beauty and newcomer Nartaji.

TEN DIMES made a very promising start here in November and will be hard to beat in a thin fillies' maiden with improvement surely in the offing for her top yard. Nartaji is an interesting newcomer, while Radiant Beauty is another one open to progress second time up.

Not much went right for TEN DIMES on debut here late last year and she sets a good standard. Nartaji is an interesting newcomer.

Brother Dave commands plenty of respect lining up in search of a three-timer, while course winner Absolute Dream has been in good nick and joins Brother Dave's stable companion Rockin Rosa on the shortlist. The verdict is for WALLAROO, though, as he produced a much better effort at Wolverhampton when third latest and might just appreciate dropping back to 7f if getting on the front end.

Ruth Carr could hold the key to this race with her representatives ROCKIN ROSA and Brother Dave both holding strong claims. It's no great surprise that James Sullivan has opted to ride the hat-trick seeking Brother Dave but Rockin Rosa shaped really well back from a break at Southwell and she could be the answer. Angel of Antrim is a live candidate and is best of the rest, albeit Absolute Dream is also worthy of respect.

It may be worth chancing TILLYBOB who is much less exposed than her rivals. She would have finished closer with a clear run last time.

MINERS GAMBLE arrives off an unchanged mark following a highly encouraging handicap debut over C&D last month, when staying on for a close-up third. Brian Ellison's charge looks primed to strike on this occasion and he may have too much again for Miss Rainbow (fifth), who has just over two lengths to make up with him from that most recent clash. Gloves is one to monitor for market support on her first start for new connections, while Exponential should be suited by stepping up in trip.

MINERS GAMBLE kept on strongly from an unpromising position when third over C&D last time and, with scope for further improvement, he's preferred to Exponential, who remains with potential. Tees Douge could make his presence felt if in the mood.

After a solid C&D comeback MINERS GAMBLE (nap) gets the nod. Cuban Storm and Notion In Motion are worth tracking in the market.

A switch in stables only seemed to improve BADOSA further when scoring over C&D last month and a 4lb rise for that success may not be enough to prevent her from landing the hat-trick. That may be at the main expense of the returning Southwell winner Brummell and the promising Forever Eighteen, who was getting the hang of things at the end of last season. Not beaten far over 7f at Wolverhampton last time out, Wren Officer may be suited by dropping back in trip if getting a strong pace to aim at.

The vote goes to WREN OFFICER, who is only 2 lb above the mark off which she was successful here in January and her latest effort at Wolverhampton was eye-catching. Badosa made a winning start for this yard over C&D last month and she looks a big threat, while Forever Eighteen is also shortlisted.

The choice is BADOSA who can complete the hat-trick after having made a successful stable debut over C&D last month.
