A taking winner of this contest last year before going on to land the Wokingham, UNEQUAL LOVE sets the standard on form and she could be a top-level sprinter for connections this season. Placed in the Haydock Sprint Cup, the five-year-old should have too much for Frost At Dawn, who has improved with each start this year and was a good second at Bath latest. Behind her on that occasion was course winner Vadream (fifth) and Adaay In Devon (seventh).

This looks a good opportunity for UNEQUAL LOVE to repeat her first-time-out success in this race 12 months ago.

An encouraging third on his return to action in the Abernant over C&D last month, LETHAL LEVI is the class act in this field having landed the Ayr Gold Cup in taking fashion last year. More Thunder had the reopposing Aramram (second) and course specialist Woodhay Wonder (third) behind when scoring over track and trip last month, and all three should have a say in proceedings. Purosangue may be winless since October 2023 but he caught they eye on his return at Southwell.

More Thunder and Woodhay Wonder have solid claims but a strongly run 6f could see STANAGE take another step forward.

Not in action since lading the Golden Gates Stakes at Royal Ascot last June, HAND OF GOD has all the potential to progress into a Group performer this season. Ryan Moore getting back on board suggests connections mean business and it may be top-weight Arabian Light who gives him the most to think about, having scored comfortably over this trip at Meydan in February. Another gelding who could have lofty aspirations this season is Approval, who got up late to score in a valuable handicap at Goodwood last August.

Having bagged two notable prizes since switched to handicap level, HAND OF GOD holds the strongest claims. Approval is second pick.

WASHINGTON HEIGHTS landed the Abernant here last April before going on to contest a number of top sprints including the Nunthorpe. Off the track for 133 days prior to finishing second in a Group 3 in Qatar in February, Kevin Ryan's charge could step forward and, given his liking for this venue, it would come as no surprise if he did the business. This went to a three-year-old 12 months ago and Tropical Storm, who represents a stable in tremendous form, must be respected. No Half Measures is noted too.

There was dramatic improvement from NO HALF MEASURES last year and the limited evidence suggests she isn't too ground-dependent.

Expanded recorded a gutsy debut success before once again showing those battling qualities when second in the Dewhurst behind Shadow Of Light. The son of Wootton Bassett is Ballydoyle's sole representative this year akin to the classy City Of Troy 12 months ago, and he merits respect in his bid to provide Aidan O'Brien with an 11th success in this prestigious event. That being said, it was hard not to be impressed with the way in which FIELD OF GOLD won the Craven last month. The Kingman colt looks a potential star in the making for team Gosden. William Buick opts to ride Ruling Court and that is noteworthy, while others to consider include Green Impact and Wimbledon Hawkeye.

Ruling Court is a very tempting option but preference is for FIELD OF GOLD (nap), who could be a superstar in the making.

KNIGHTSWOOD went winless last term but having struck the woodwork at Thirsk on his reappearance, he made no mistake when recording a narrow success at Ripon last time. Charlie Johnston's gelding was worth more than the winning margin suggests that day and, off 3lb higher, he may well repeat the dose. El Cordobes finished second in a couple of handicaps at Meydan earlier in the year and there should be more to come. He'll need improvement to defy this lofty rating, though, and it could be that French Master is the bigger threat.

They don't have the best form claims but the lightly raced Frankel 4yos FRENCH MASTER and El Cordobes possess the potential.

AMERICAN STYLE seems to have benefited from a wind operation over the winter judging by his seasonal debut success at Ripon a couple of weeks ago. With the promise of more to come, Kevin Ryan's gelding merits respect off a 4lb higher mark. So Darn Hot got no luck in running at Newcastle last time and could easily bounce back here. Invictus Gold was placed in a similar C&D event last month and may make the frame once again.

Middleham Park Racing look to hold a strong hand and UNCLE DON is preferred to The Dragon King.

White Crown Star filled second place in a similar C&D contest on his handicap debut last month and Andrew Balding's colt has to be of interest on the back of that performance. That said, marginal preference is for HUNKY DORY, who was third in a decent novice event at Kempton on his final start last year and that form suggests that an opening mark of 74 should be workable for the son of Pinatubo. Cases can be made for plenty of the remainder, but Beronia and Rogue Diplomat stand out the most.

Judged on the strength of her 2yo maiden form, ROCKIN' THE BOAT looks particularly interesting. Hunky Dory is second choice.

CLASSIC ENCOUNTER remains unexposed and got off the mark over a mile at Redcar last month. The four-year-old faces a tougher task here, but he may still have more to offer and a 4lb rise appears to be fair. Crack Shot showed promise when third on his debut for these connections at Kempton recently and he should not be discounted. Others to consider are Dolce Courage, Mr Baloo and Cogitate.

This could go to DOLCE COURAGE, who kept on well for a close fourth over 7f at Doncaster last time. Crack Shot is feared.
