INDIAN CREAK was beaten just a length in a hot handicap over course and distance on his latest start. Jack Channon's sprinter looks set to take advantage of a potentially lenient mark having won off 8lb higher this time last year. Heartwarmer won here with plenty left in the tank and is not easily dismissed raised 6lb, while Nottingham third Pen Portrait is another three-year-old open to further improvement.

A trappy sprint in which the suggestion is INDIAN CREAK, who turned in his best effort of the season when fourth over C&D 12 days ago and Jack Channon's 7-y-o looks up to taking advantage of his reduced mark back down in class. Heartwarmer doubled his tally over this C&D 3 weeks ago so he heads up the dangers, with Many A Star and Tourist rounding off the shortlist.

The 7yos MANY A STAR, Indian Creak and Lequinto all like it here and can prove too strong for their younger rivals.

MIDNIGHT THUNDER blew the start at Pontefract on his introduction and did well to finish second given the circumstances. Saeed bin Suroor's Kodiac colt will likely launch a serious challenge with that experience under his belt. Milford was outclassed in the Norfolk Stakes at Royal Ascot but looks a threat back at this level, while improvement is expected from Elyam now he's fitted with a hood.

MIDNIGHT THUNDER made a very promising start amidst greenness when runner-up in a Pontefract maiden earlier this month and with improvement on the cards, Saeed bin Suroor's colt is fancied to go a place better at the expense of Milford, who made a winning debut at Hamilton back in May and wasn't disgraced pitched into Group 2 company at the Royal Meeting next time. Tawasol and Charmoula both look interesting newcomers on paper so complete the shortlist.

Milford and Elyam are respected but MIDNIGHT THUNDER would have won at Pontefract had he got away on terms.

DEIRA MILE has his first outing since finishing a respectable fourth in the Derby. The St Leger entrant has every chance on these terms and can resume winning ways having landed a novice race here back in April. Aimeric was slightly disappointing at Goodwood latest having gone close in Listed company at Newmarket before that, but he's still preferred to Salisbury third Sea Of Roses. Cash makes a belated seasonal debut and is capable of going well on the pick of his form.

AIMERIC has shown improved form this year, successful in a Lingfield handicap before running well in a pair of listed races, so he could be able to bounce back to winning ways returned to this level. Deira Mile is feared most after his fourth in the Derby, though any rain would help his chances, with Cash also one to note on his reappearance.

Three-year-olds hold their own in this and DEIRA MILE is hard to oppose after posting a clear career best when fourth in the Derby.

The classy My Prospero made a pleasing belated seasonal reappearance when finishing third at Glorious Goodwood despite not enjoying the clearest of passages, and he must be respected in a bid to go two places better. That said, BRACKEN'S LAUGH edges preference. The form of his fifth in the Hampton Court Stakes at Royal Ascot has a strong look to it and, on his first start since undergoing wind surgery, this looks a good opportunity for him. Progressive handicapper Persica is well worth his place at this level and completes the shortlist.

MY PROSPERO was beaten only ½ length when third at Goodwood on his reappearance conceding weight all round, so he can build on that effort to resume winning ways as he goes back up in trip. The main danger could be Persica, who has been going the right way in handicaps and is well worth his place upped in grade, ahead of Sean.

An on-song My Prospero would take some beating but BRACKEN'S LAUGH (nap) remains unexposed and he's had a wind op since last time.

ARKHALIA FLYNN appeared to relish the step up to 1m when scoring with the minimum of fuss at Ffos Las earlier this month and, upped 5lb, it would be no surprise if he were able to complete a double with the possibility of further improvement not out of the question. This step back up in trip can help Lyndon B and he can emerge as the main danger to the selection off what looks a workable mark. A 1lb rise for a recent C&D second doesn't discount Intercessor.

The improving ARKHALIA FLYNN can take the next up the step the ladder in his stride. Fellow 3-y-o Midnight Drive is an obvious danger assuming she's ready to roll after a break. Lyndon B caught the eye at Newbury recently and looks best of the older brigade.

A few with chances and they include PITNEY, for whom the cards haven't fallen too favourably the last twice.

Elforleather arrives on the back of a comfortable victory over 1m4f at Ffos Las and it would be no surprise if he had a part to play once again off a 4lb higher mark. That said, the hat-trick seeking KINETIC looks a more solid proposition for win purposes. James Owen's charge scored with plenty in hand over 1m4f at Wolverhampton on Tuesday and she looks capable of successfully shouldering a 6lb penalty in this company. Red Cloud is respected most of the remainder.

KINETIC is thriving under the expert tutelage of James Owen and fancied to defy a 6 lb penalty and rattle off a quick hat-trick. Handily-weighted Red Cloud rates the chief danger now back in handicap company with Ffos Las victor Elforleather and Neil Mulholland's new recruit Little Venice not discounted either.

Topweight KINETIC has thrived since joining James Owen and can complete a hat-trick. Elforleather could be best of the rest.
