IDEFIX DE CIERGUES gained some valuable experience when fourth over an inadequate 2m at Ffos Las on his chasing debut. Stepping back up in trip promises to bring about improvement from the six-year-old, who also has his sights lowered on this occasion. Ballybeen was pulled up on his last visit here back in March but is capable of making an impact, while others to note include King Of Brazil and Red Nika.

IDEFIX DE CIERGUES shaped quite well on his chase debut considering 2m was very much on the short side and he can make his second start over the larger obstacles a winning one now back over a more suitable trip. The reappearing Ballybeen has a largely consistent record and is second choice ahead of Tom Lacey's Red Nika.

It might be worth siding with the unexposed chaser IDEFIX DE CIERGUES, who looks interesting on this big step back up in trip.

Runner-up off this mark over C&D last month, Kyber Crystal filled the same berth at Catterick most recently and another prominent showing is forecast. That said, PROFITEER edges preference. Tim Easterby's charge showed a likeable attitude when bringing up a Pontefract double and, nudged up another 3lb, he gets the vote to round out the hat-trick. Mrs Bagerran looks the pick of the remainder.

ROYAL DUKE had an excuse when a beaten favourite here last time and is given another chance to show his mark is workable. Fellow 3-y-o Profiteer has come good this autumn and is feared most despite this being a different test to the one he's encountered at Pontefract the last twice. Thunderstorm Katie is also shortlisted after her promising first run for Jim Goldie.

The most solid contenders are MRS BAGERRAN and Kyber Crystal, preferred in that order.
Class & Speed Card

RADIO STAR struggled to land a blow in a nursery at York last time and this return to novice company may see her shed her maiden tag at the fifth attempt. Ollie Sangster's charge has the benefit of experience on her side and she can put that to good use. Plenty of improvement can be expected from Highfield Blue, who wasn't without supporters when seventh on her racecourse debut over 5f at Thirsk in May, while Lovelifenlaughter looks booked for third.

RADIO STAR had posted fair form prior to her disappointing York run and looks the safest option in the opener. Highfield Blue may provide the chief threat.

The York run last time leaves RADIO STAR with questions to answer on soft ground but this is a much weaker race.
Class & Speed Card

Champion Bumper eighth ROYAL INFANTRY wasn't at all disgraced at the Festival, having gone into it with victories at Doncaster and in Listed company at Newbury behind him. His trainer has already shown himself to have a fairly strong hand with novice hurdlers so far this campaign and the five-year-old could be yet another exciting prospect. Kap Ouest's second at Uttoxeter in May was a fair effort considering he pulled hard behind a subsequent Grade 2 winner, while Plantaroma's bumper form entitles her to respect.

ROYAL INFANTRY fared best of the British representatives when eighth in the Champion Bumper and sure to know his job, he can outclass these on hurdles debut. Kap Quest and Salt Rock remain open to improvement and can chase the selection home.

Top of the list is Dan Skelton's Listed bumper winner ROYAL INFANTRY, who could have a bright future at this new discipline.
Class & Speed Card

TATTIE BOGLE was the subject of market support when finding only a potentially useful filly too good on his debut at Southwell last week and, with the promise of more to come, he gets the vote to go one place better. Storm The Dug was beaten less than a length into third in a C&D nursery and he can emerge as the main danger to the selection back in maiden company. Master Technician arrives on the back of a couple of solid placed efforts and he completes the shortlist.

MASTER TECHNICIAN holds the best form on show so looks the way to go in this open maiden. Tattie Bogle heads the list of dangers on the back of her promising debut Southwell second with Dandy Magic, Storm The Dug and Emery Down all worthy of consideration too.

The percentage call goes to STORM THE DUG, ahead of Master Technician in a fairly open maiden.
Class & Speed Card

JEANY MAY wasn't beaten far when third over 5f at Chelmsford last month and a repeat of that effort would see her offer another bold bid. Dropped 1lb in the ratings, Nigel Tinkler's filly looks to be on a lenient mark. She Went Whoosh should benefit from a drop back in trip after a modest third at Ffos Las last time, while Avalon is also worthy of consideration on her nursery bow.

AVALON had excuses at Kempton on her most recent outing and strikes as the type to do much better now switching to nursery company given her useful pedigree, so she's put forward as the answer. Jeany May is proving consistent and ought to be on the premises once again.

Tricky. SHE WENT WHOOSH ran one of her better races on this surface first time up and 6f on heavy last time found her out.
Class & Speed Card

TRIPOLI FLYER travelled strongly when just touched off by his stable companion Horaces Pearl in the Grade 2 bumper at Aintree's Grand National meeting and this appears to be a fine opportunity for him to make a successful start to life over timber. Dual bumper winner Jurancon finished second on his hurdling bow at Worcester and has to enter the reckoning, along with newcomer Mon Kaplais and 150,000-pounds point-to-point winner Disguisedlimit.

TRIPOLI FLYER was most progressive in bumpers last term, successful at Lingfield prior to an excellent second in an Aintree Grade 2 on his final outing in April. A useful prospect now hurdling, he shades the vote ahead of Jurancon, who was 2-3 in bumpers and made a bright start over hurdles when second at Worcester 21 days ago. Point winner Disguisedlimit and Mon Kaplais are others to note.

The vote goes to smart bumper performer TRIPOLI FLYER, who looks an exciting prospect for novice hurdles. Jurancon is feared most.
Class & Speed Card

BINT AL KARAMA did it well when getting off the mark at the first time of asking for this stable here last month and, easing slightly in trip, she may prove tough to peg back if arriving in a similar mood. Runner-up off this rating at Southwell last time, Shimmering Sands warrants respect in his bid to go one place better now returning to the turf. Code Purple is respected most out of the remainder.

SHIMMERING SANDS went down only to a progressive 3-y-o at Southwell last time and is taken to go one better from the same mark. Code Purple's good record here makes him an obvious danger. Beltane is next on the list.

A chance is taken that BELTANE can end his long losing run. Second choice is Code Purple.
Class & Speed Card

Marching Mac brought up the hat-trick when running on gamely to make most over 5f at Newmarket last Friday and another bold bid can be expected. However, he may be susceptible to some better treated rivals based on him carrying a 12lb penalty. Therefore a chance is taken on fellow last-time-out winner IMPRESSOR, who won in good style over 5f at Redcar last month, and a 3lb rise can be negated by Tom Kiely-Marshall's 5lb claim. The consistent Huddle Up (second) is fancied to reverse the form with Last Outlaw off 3lb better terms from their latest C&D outing.

MARCHING MAC has already enjoyed a superb autumn with 4 wins for these connections and while he has another penalty to carry, he's a tough sprinter to contain at present. Last Outlaw and Huddle Up occupied the first 2 spots over C&D a fortnight ago and look the main threats.

Open to further improvement, LAST OUTLAW can confirm recent C&D dominance over Huddle Up. Marching Mac is second choice.
Class & Speed Card

French Ship offered plenty to work with when second on his hurdles bow over 2m here last month and he is likely to relish this distance. However, dual bumper winner LET IT RAIN makes her debut over timber and, in receipt of weight all round, Dan Skelton's mare could have too much class for these rivals. Newton Tornado created a good impression when winning on his sole start between the flags in Ireland and market support would be interesting.

FRENCH SHIP is the percentage call on the back of his promising opening second over hurdles in a 2m course novice last month, although Dan Skelton listed bumper winner Let It Rain has the potential to be a big threat if taking to her new discipline back from 10 months off. Got A Dream is another bumper winner who should have a bright future over jumps in an interesting maiden hurdle.

This can go to Dan Skelton's mare LET IT RAIN, who was 2-2 in bumpers last season and looks an exciting recruit to hurdling.
Class & Speed Card

DISTILLATE recorded a fifth career win when successful over 7f at Cork in September and has been generally consistent since, including when placed here on his latest two starts. He shouldn't be inconvenienced by this drop back in trip and probably has most to fear from stablemate Clonmacash, who won a nursery over C&D 12 months ago and wasn't disgraced on his first outing for current connections at the Curragh recently. Sporting Hero was a close fourth behind Inishmot Prince at Navan and hasn't enjoyed a clear passage twice since, but appears best at 5f. There shouldn't be much to choose between Livingston Range and Land Rover judged on running behind My Girl Sioux here last Friday.

SPORTING HERO was a dual AW winner when trained in Britain and is potentially quite a classy sort for a claimer. Distillate may prove best of the McGuinness trio and provide the chief threat ahead of the selection's stablemate Land Lover.

Denis Hogan may have found a suitable opportunity for SPORTING HERO to add to the two AW wins gained in Britain early his career
Class & Speed Card

Having scored at Chelmsford 11 days ago, Etretat warrants respect in his current vein of form. However, Charlie Johnston's charge is effectively 9lb higher with Joe Fanning riding instead of 5lb claimer Archie Young so the down-in-grade SILENT MOVE shades the verdict. The son of Ardad was successful when last tried in class 4 company, at Haydock in May, and a 165-day break may have freshened him up. Quiet Resolve is also forecast to feature.

The form of the race SILENT MOVE won at Haydock in May worked out and it's not too hard to forgive her lesser run in the traditionally-strong Silver Bowl there since. She can bounce back after a break, perhaps at the main expense of stablemate Quiet Resolve,

Despite a 165-day absence, SILENT MOVE may be able to get his own way in this small field and will take some pegging back if he does.
Class & Speed Card

It's All About You and Glory And Honour are seeking hat-tricks but the slight preference is for the former after his latest victory at Ffos Las in August. However, they both might be up against it with KING'S REIGN. Charlie Appleby's three-year-old showed improvement in first-time cheekpieces to score on his handicap debut at Pontefract in September and might take another step forward for this step up in trip. Teorie is another to keep an eye on.

HARDY BLOKE faces a sterner assignment than when successful over shorter here a fortnight ago but he was never stronger than at the line on that occasion so, back at 2m, he's fancied to make another bold bid nudged up 4 lb. King's Reign looks highly likely to be suited by the demands of this test and the Godolphin in-mate also needs considering, as do hat-trick seeking pair Zikany and It's All About You.

Competitive. Zikany was in sparkling form for his wins on heavy ground last month but slight preference is for IT'S ALL ABOUT YOU.
Class & Speed Card

Narrowly denied over C&D last time out when she had the reopposing Sold The Dream (fifth) behind, CHERRY HILL can gain compensation on this occasion at a track where she won last September over 7f. The Spotlight Kid has dropped to mark 9lb lower than his previous success and he must be thereabouts, along with United Force, who had Cobh Harbour (third) narrowly behind over 1m at Chelmsford last month.

Ex Hong Kong-performer RIVER ALWEN has yet to win in Britain but he gave a good account of himself from an unpromising position at Chelmsford 3 weeks ago. On the back of that, he gets the tentative nod in favour of United Force and The Spotlight Kid, who takes a drop in class.

Cherry Hill should go well despite stall 14, but SOLD THE DREAM was only just behind her over C&D latest and can reverse placings.
Class & Speed Card

Having found only a progressive rival too strong at Wincanton last December, chasing/seasonal debutant JAVERT ALLEN ticks plenty of the right boxes. Jane Williams' gelding has the scope to excel over fences and he edges the vote over fellow unexposed rival Valadon. Connections are wasting no time in sending the four-year-old over the larger obstacles and his 8lb weight-for-age allowance means he cannot be taken lightly. Onewayortother should put the experience gained when third at Warwick to good use.

JAVERT ALLEN acquitted himself well in a couple of hurdles last term and his half-brother made a successful switch to chasing for this yard 3 years ago. He gets the nod in what should prove an informative contest. Onewayortother made a good start over fences earlier this year and may provide the chief threat.

Low-mileage 5yo JAVERT ALLEN is well handicapped if judged on his close second to a progressive hurdler at Wincanton last December.
Class & Speed Card

EL FONTENARO showed promise in a 7f Gowran maiden back in July and ran a cracker when dropped to the minimum trip in a Naas nursery last time, beating all bar Tommy McJohn. That form can be upgraded as he was probably inconvenienced by a low draw. Tomarlo enters calculations after keeping on well into fourth over 5f here last month, while Movin And Groovin also showed some promise on her latest start here over 7f. There isn't much to choose between Drish Samphire and Sea Fort on running at Navan last month, while first reserve Skillman Ave is another to consider if getting a run.

EL FONTENARO was first home in her group when second at Naas last time and with the step back up in trip expected to suit, she looks the pick at the weights. Temps Leve looks a very likely improver now allotted a mark, with Tomarlo completing the shortlist.

There are several potential dark horses lurking but the form horse is arguably EL FONTENARO, whose 5f Naas run was encouraging
Class & Speed Card

DARBUCKS looked better than ever when completing a brace at Redcar and he ticks plenty of the right boxes. The five-year-old now has the assistance of excellent apprentice Kaiya Fraser, who negates a 3lb rise in the ratings with his claim, and a hat-trick could be forthcoming. The biggest threat may emerge from recent C&D winner Golden Valour, although he was third behind the selection on his penultimate outing at Ayr. Amayretto could also go close if enjoying a smoother passage than she did in the aforementioned Redcar race.

A few with chances but ROMAN HARRY rates just the pick of these weights so is taken to make a winning start for Iain Jardine. Redcar scorer Darbucks heads the list of dangers, although John L Sullivan, Giselles Izzy and Black Friday need factoring in too.

Granted better luck and a reproduction of her best form, low-drawn AMAYRETTO could well reverse Redcar placings with Darbucks.
Class & Speed Card

BIG BEAR HUG finished over nine lengths clear of the third in this grade at Newbury last time and was given a 4lb rise for that performance. Provided the five-year-old can back up that level of form, she could be the one to beat. Laura Bay was denied by the smallest of margins into second at Leicester in September and holds an obvious chance with Richard Kingscote on board. The in-form Cresta Cat completes the shortlist.

CRESTA CAT is enjoying an excellent season and fancied to bag win number four under a penalty for his easy recent Leicester victory. Croeso Cymraeg heads the list of dangers on the back of his stylish Doncaster success with Narragansett, Big Bear Hug and Laura Bay also in the picture. Lunar Jet completes the shortlist.

Things are tougher for CRESTA CAT but in-form horses with a proven liking for the mud are a dangerous species at this time of year.
Class & Speed Card

A half-sister to multiple Group 1-winner Limato, CARLYLE SQUARE has a lofty pedigree to live up to on her debut, but the stable has been going well of late and this looks like a winnable opportunity. The daughter of Wootton Bassett is preferred to Life Is Beautiful, who hails from a family that connections have been successful with in the past. A promising third on debut over C&D last month having been slowly into stride, Scarlet Princess is the pick of those with experience.

Plenty of depth to this maiden with well-related newcomer CARLYLE SQUARE just about the most persuasive option on paper. Life Is Beautiful is another likely type, while Scarlet Princess and Revelance are in the right hands to progress.

Both Revelance and SCARLET PRINCESS shaped with promise on debut and Charlie Appleby's filly is marginally preferred
Class & Speed Card

I'm On My Way continued her upward trajectory when making a winning seasonal debut at Ffos Las and a 6lb higher mark is unlikely to prevent another bold bid. Neil Mulholland's mare deserves her place near the top of the market, but it could be worth taking a punt on DANA'S GEM back up in trip. The six-year-old was a staying-on third over 2m4f at Worcester and a breakthrough victory may beckon. Musique De Fee and Kentford Mallard are others to consider.

I'M ON MY WAY is proving most progressive and is fancied to go in again. Dana's Gem shaped quite encouragingly on her comeback/stable debut at Worcester in September and remains open to improvement from a basement mark, with After Many Days completing the shortlist.

Improving I'M ON MY WAY (nap) who can land her fourth win from her last five starts. Dana's Gem is second choice.
Class & Speed Card

DECLAREE has proved a frustrating sort to follow, but appears to have been found a good opportunity to finally open her account. The Johnny Murtagh-trained filly takes a big drop in class after tackling a Naas Listed race last time and was placed on all seven previous outings, including over this trip at Fairyhouse. Authenticate has indicated some ability in two outings here, including after a lengthy layoff last Friday. Bahama Bear wasn't disgraced after a slow start on debut over 6f here last month, while Modern Talking is another who could progress from an initial outing at Galway recently.

DECLAREE found listed company a bridge too far on her latest outing, yet she'd previously gone close to breaking her duck in a Fairyhouse maiden over this trip in September. She's given the vote to come out on top back in calmer waters. Joseph O'Brien pair Winsome and Authenticate both appeal as the types who can do better and head up the dangers.

It is tempting to oppose DECLAREE, an odds-on loser on her most recent attempt in a maiden. However, there is no strong alternative
Class & Speed Card

A tentative vote goes to SPARTAN WARRIOR, who has not been in action since July but was a progressive sort earlier in the season for previous connections. The switch to the Rebecca Menzies yard is no negative and he may have too much for Rory The Cat, who scored here in August and has run respectably the last twice over further. Savrola has shaped as though he would relish this sort of trip and he gets that opportunity now.

SAVROLA came from further back than the other principals when fourth over 1¼m at Ayr last time and is taken to build on that promising effort now stepping back up in trip. Tilsitt was narrowly in front of the selection on that occasion and can give him most to do ahead of Spanish Hustle.

There are question marks over several and this can go to SPANISH HUSTLE, who is consistent and suited by this track.
Class & Speed Card

EQUION found only an unexposed three-year-old too strong when thwarted in his double bid at Leicester nine days ago. Tony Carroll's inmate makes plenty of appeal racing off the same mark and is taken to regain the winning thread. Dream Pirate is 6lb higher for his recent C&D victory and the son of Oasis Dream may serve the most resistance to the selection, ahead of the first-time visored Spioradalta.

Preference is for DREAM PIRATE, who matched his season's best form when scoring here last month and remains feasibly treated. Equion and Adelabella head the list of dangers.

It's unlikely that EQUION (nap) will face a market springer with improvement lurking as was the case last week at Leicester.
Class & Speed Card

ZANZOUN may not have progressed as hoped from first to second start when third at Yarmouth, but she still ran with plenty of credit and this appeals as an ideal opportunity to break the maiden. A highly expensive purchase at the sales, Romantic Opera must enter calculations on debut, as well as Lady Ridgewood, who shaped with plenty of promise first time out at Yarmouth when keeping on late in the piece.

Having chased home a subsequent Group 3 winner on debut, ZANZOUN ran to a similar level when third at Yarmouth (1m) 30 days ago, the fact she raced freely not aiding her cause. Remaining with potential, the application of a first-time hood can help now and she's fancied to make a bold bid. Godolphin newcomer Romantic Opera is also worthy of respect, whilst promising pair Lady Ridgewood and Take A Breath are others to note.

Romantic Opera is a well-related newcomer but LADY RIDGEWOOD is fancied to confirm the undoubted promise of her Yarmouth debut
Class & Speed Card

In what looks a competitive affair, BOSTON JOE gets a tentative vote. Rebecca Curtis' charge fairly bolted up on his seasonal reappearance over fences at Ffos Las last month and, off a hurdles figure 8lb lower than his revised chase rating, this looks a fine opportunity for him to bring up a double. Speiriuil made a pleasing start to life in handicaps when runner-up over 2m at Uttoxeter in May and she must enter calculations off the same mark. Stardhem is just one more to consider.

Plenty are in with a shout. THE COX EXPRESS is on a long losing run but signalled he is ready to strike again when runner-up at Fontwell when last seen so can return in style off a lenient mark with his yard going well. Recent Ffos Las victor Boston Joe heads the list of dangers, although the likes of Ballydangan, Despereaux, Hedera Park and Stardhem all need factoring into this very open contest too.

This revolves around BOSTON JOE, who won by 20l over fences last month and is only 2lb higher back in this sphere.
Class & Speed Card

DEVIL'S ANGEL won eight times in the UK, including over this trip, and having joined current connections earlier this year, has dropped down to a competitive mark. The selection finished strongly when narrowly denied over 6f here last month and should be suited by the step back up in trip. Ferrari Desert confirmed the promise of her third to Purring Along in a 27-runner Curragh handicap when scoring over C&D last week and rates a serious danger off just a 5lb higher mark, while Velvet Skies also advertised his chance here last time when beating all bar Marble Angel. Are You In Or Out ran a cracker on soft ground at the Curragh and is a threat if reproducing that form on this surface.

DEVIL'S ANGEL is on a long losing run but rates the pick of the weights on the back of his very good recent third here so earns the vote in this very open handicap. Ferrari Desert is feared most on the back of her C&D success, although the likes of Jackie Brown, Are You In Or Out and Velvet Skies all need considering.

A 5lb rise for last week's C&D win may not prevent a follow-up here for FERRARI DESERT (nap)
Class & Speed Card

REEL HER IN was value for more than the winning margin when getting up by a neck over C&D and a 2lb rise could prove lenient as she looks to bring up the hat-trick. A respectable second over 1m6f at Catterick last time out and a winner here over shorter in September, Molten Sea can give her the most to think about, while Different Drum has claims on his success at Newcastle over slightly further two starts ago.

A case can be made for a few of these but it's still very hard to ignore the claims of hat-trick seeking REEL HER IN who still looks ahead of her mark. Southwell runner-up Different Drum is next on the list with Star Of Markinch, Ebony Maw and Annandale all worthy of respect too.

Molten Sea is respected but REEL HER IN (nap) has looked a different filly since coming over from Ireland and gets the vote.
Class & Speed Card

WANDERLUST offered plenty to work with on her third-placed handicap bow over an extended 1m3f at Yarmouth last month and she is bred to relish this rise in distance. The three-year-old is a half-sister to Listed 1m6f winner Aljezeera and a first career victory looms. Although unable to complete a brace off an unchanged mark at Southwell last time out, Letmebetheboss still warrants respect reverting to turf off a 5lb higher rating. Rock N Roll Pinkie and Fen Tiger may fare best of the remainder.

The step up to 1¾m should play to the strengths of the unexposed WANDERLUST so she's the selection in this finale. Fellow 3-y-o Letmebetheboss is feared most ahead of Rock N Roll Pinkie and Gold Aura.

Today's longer trip should suit WANDERLUST, with her a close-relation to a 1m6f Listed winner. Rock N Roll Pinkie is next best.
Class & Speed Card

An open contest sees a chance taken on PATCH'S BOND, who caught the eye over 7f at this venue on his first taste of racecourse action in August. Pat Phelan's charge is likely to appreciate this drop in trip after a modest second over 1m4f at Lingfield last time, and it wouldn't take a vast amount of improvement to claim this prize. Tasdeed is feared most after finishing fourth over C&D last time and more is likely to come, while Abbey Law is also worthy of consideration.

TASDEED surpassed his winning debut form when fourth under a penalty in an above-average novice over C&D 3 weeks ago and he looks the answer. Tarqeez will surely improve on her debut effort given her connections so is feared most.

Tasdeed sets a clear standard but TARQEEZ could leave her Newbury debut well behind now upped in distance.
Class & Speed Card

There is lots to like about the chances of Choice Runner on paper and the 95,000-euro purchase commands respect on his Rules bow for the in-form Dan Skelton team. That said, Anthony Honeyball also has his string in fine fettle at present, and his JORDANS CROSS edges preference. He scored impressively in his only point-to-point and this 50,000-pounds son of Berkshire could land the spoils on his bumper debut. Kingston Queen is also considered.

CHOICE RUNNER hails from a yard with a solid record in bumpers and gets the nod in a race where the market may prove the best guide. Jordans Cross and Kingston Queen are also of interest.

There is not much to go on and the safest option is the Skelton representative CHOICE RUNNER. The main danger may be Jordans Cross.
Class & Speed Card

BELLA COLOMBIA won on debut here last season and appeals on her return to the Polytrack for the first time this year. She has been generally consistent and finished well under a patient ride at Gowran last time when fourth to Thrifty Of Digby. Future Cutlet was runner-up in a Galway Festival maiden before opening his account at Down Royal and has scope for further improvement now switching to a handicap for the first time. Ard Na Mara won a 1m1f Punchestown maiden and may have been unsuited by longer trips on both outings since, while Nakasero and Mags are others to consider.

FUTURE CUTLET could have more to offer now handicapping on AW and can follow up his Down Royal victory. Mags is the obvious danger, while Ard Na Mara is respected on her AW debut after a good run in a big-field handicap at Leopardstown.

Quite open but perhaps MAGS can gain a deserved first success now tried at 1m. Future Cutlet and Nakasero look the dangers
Class & Speed Card

SPIRIT LEAD ME was ahead of the handicapper when defying a 6lb rise when scoring in decisive fashion over 7f at Wolverhampton last time, and he looks primed to bring up the hat-trick. Richard Hughes' runner has has been dealt a hefty 14lb hike, but that doesn't appear to be out of reach. Up The Pace looks to be the biggest danger off the same mark as his length-and-a-quarter third over 7f at Goodwood last month, while Primrose Path can be seen to better effect in nursery company.

SPIRIT LEAD ME was clearly hiding his light under a bushel in his qualifying runs as he's been a completely different proposition in nurseries, thrashing the opposition both starts. His new mark has kicked in but he still may be ahead of the game, so he's awarded the vote in favour of Up The Pace and Miss Collada.

A useful-looking nursery in which UP THE PACE can prove too strong for Valsharah and Spirit Lead Me.
Class & Speed Card

GARDONE has joined the in-form Eric McNamara this year and successfully switched to this surface in decisive fashion over C&D in August. The selection slightly spoiled his chance at the start before finishing well to take second on his only subsequent outing. Barretstown added to two course wins when scoring over 1m2f at Cork back in May and has shaped well on both outings since, while Koniag won over a mile at Leopardstown this summer and had Areana behind when runner-up to Church Mountain (won again since) over C&D last month. Colin Keane is an interesting booking on Tastyee, while Gallo Dell Cielo and Designer Cailin are others to note.

GARDONE has been in fine form here and can resume winning ways. Areana and Barretstown are a couple of the dangers.

Second to an improver over C&D last month, KONIAG can go one better here, chiefly at the expense of Gardone
Class & Speed Card

HAPPY HADEDA won in good style over C&D when last seen in September and she can follow up that success on this occasion. The three-year-old won more comfortably than the three-quarters of a length distance may suggest and she can take this 3lb rise in her stride. Smart Hero is likely to pose the most significant questions to the selection off an exploitable-looking mark based on his Southwell success on his penultimate start, while Giant is also noted.

The return to a synthetic surface could be just the ticket for SMART HERO, who impressed when opening his account at Southwell on his penultimate start and the return to 7f ought not to inconvenience him now eased in class. Happy Hadeda made light of an 11-month absence when scoring over C&D 47 days ago and she's feared. Under The Twilight and Giant are others to consider, with Newsreader not discounted, either.

3yos Smart Hero and HAPPY HADEDA (nap) appeal most with Hughie Morrison's filly taken to maintain a flawless course record.
Class & Speed Card

DANCING STEVE showed promise on a couple of occasions before he was successful over 1m1f at Tipperary and was making his first visit to this venue last month when finishing well into third behind Church Mountain (won again since). The World's Astage had a list of placed efforts this summer but needs to bounce back after disappointing at Clonmel, while Cleopatra's Needle won over hurdles at Fairyhouse last month. Any market move for Thegooseiscooked would be significant after catching the eye when staying on over shorter trips on her latest two starts. Poppadom was just denied at Gowran last time, but appears best on soft ground.

DANCING STEVE ran well on his first visit to Dundalk last month and has a good shout with his rider able to claim 3 lb this time. Streetscape is interesting on his return, while Cleopatra's Needle must be respected after her Fairyhouse hurdles win.

Race-fitness and a decent draw can give DANCING STEVE the edge here over the reappearing Streetscape
Class & Speed Card

Simiyann justified favouritism by five lengths to make it two wins from his last three starts and he should remain competitive off a 9lb higher rating. However, it may pay to side with TRITONIC, who made the frame at York in August before failing to fire when having a spin over hurdles in the Silver Trophy at Chepstow last time. Alan King's seven-year-old looks well placed to regain the winning thread, while last-time-out winner Cool Party is another to note.

A tight-knit handicap in which TRITONIC edges the vote having posted a very good York third when last seen in this sphere in August. Recent C&D scorer Cool Party rates a big threat however, with Simiyann appealing as the pick of the Ian Williams-trained trio and also firmly in the picture.

Cool Party showed the right attitude over C&D a fortnight ago, but preference is for TRITONIC, who'll find this less competitive.
Class & Speed Card

ART FANTASTIQUE produced a good effort to occupy the runner-up berth over track and trip last month and the handicapper might have been kind to leave his mark alone for that effort. Tom Ward's three-year-old might only need to reproduce that level of form in order to go one better. First Company took the silver medal home over C&D last time and would be foolish to dismiss off 2lb higher, while Lahina Bay can fight it out for the minor honours.

ART FANTASTIQUE's draw makes things tricky but he lines up here on the back of a very good second in a C&D handicap 7 days ago and he could be worth siding with in the hope he gets the breaks. First Company and Don't Fight It are others to consider.

Classy Clarets may go well back at 6f but perhaps LAHINA BAY can defy top weight now that she is reunited with Rhys Clutterbuck.
Class & Speed Card

Silver Nightfall got her head back in front when scoring by a short head in this grade at Chelmsford last time, but the step back up in trip might prove to be the wrong move. With that in mind, the vote goes to ANGEL ROSE, who is bred to be a lot better than a mark of 68. Therefore, she is taken to prove a different proposition now tackling the handicap ranks. Tahitian Prince is the pick of the remainder.

UMBRIA needs to shrug off a lesser effort at Yarmouth 22 days ago, yet she'd previously highlighted she's capable of exploiting this sort of mark, so Ed Walker's filly gets the nod to bounce back returned to this surface. Silver Nightfall comes here thriving and along with handicap debutante Angel Rose, heads up the dangers.

Silver Nightfall looks set to go well again but UMBRIA still has low mileage and her C&D run in August threatened much better.
