The hat-trick seeking Asense must enter calculations in her current mood, although there are grounds to take the four-year-old on now encountering her most testing conditions to date. With that in mind, it may be worth taking a chance on the returning ARTHALOT, who won under similar conditions off a 1lb lower mark at Lingfield in May 2021. It's How We Roll arrives in good form and is another to note.

HOT FUSS has been highly tried since winning impressively at Salisbury in July and the son of Calyx could be hard to beat now eased back in grade, despite having to carry a 6lb penalty. Dallas Star and Calvert are others who arrive here with valid form claims, while Flowering is a newcomer to note. Palace Green unseated his rider at the start on his racecourse bow at Newbury and he should not be underestimated.

ETON COLLEGE has won two of his last three starts and a 3lb rise for the most recent of those victories may not be enough to stop him here. That said, Villalobos has been knocking hard on the door of late and is an obvious threat in a first-time visor. Racing Demon has also been running very well in defeat and should not be discounted, while Dream Pirate and Fact Or Fable complete the shortlist.

Three-time C&D winner Lilandra is an appealing contender, while only a short head separated Paco's Pride (second) and Eye Of The Water (third) when they clashed here in June. However, preference is for ROUNDABOUT SILVER, who was a cosy winner over C&D in August and again rates as a serious player having finished a close third off this mark at Epsom 18 days ago.

Off a mark of 72, Whoop Whoop (second) doesn't set the bar excruciatingly high but she had enough in hand over Crooked Crown (third) when they met over 5f at Ffos Las 18 days ago. Nevertheless, the form of WHITELEY WAY's penultimate effort has worked out well, given the winner subsequently landed a sales race at Newmarket. She faces nothing of that calibre here, and offers strong appeal on her nursery debut.

Delagate This Lord has registered eight of his nine career wins at this course and it would be folly to suggest he isn't capable of adding to that tally despite running off 5lb higher than last month's C&D success. However, PENGUIN ISLAND is less exposed over sprint distances and, off just 2lb higher than her 5f win at Chepstow in July, Henry Candy's filly rates as a more intriguing option. Sergeant Pep and Magnificence are others to consider.

ALMATY STAR cruised home to shed his maiden tag at cramped odds last time and he now returns to the handicapping ranks off a rating of 80. The son of Kodiac could have improvement in him, which makes him the one to side with. Kodi Red made a pleasing start to life under new trainer Darryll Holland when fourth at Doncaster and should be considered, while last-time-out victor Pop Dancer isn't out of it either.

MISS DOLLY ROCKER showed plenty of promise to finish second on her handicap bow at Chepstow and she was kindly left on the same rating. The daughter of Frontiersman takes a drop in grade and she looks well placed to go well. Mambo Beat did it nicely in a class 6 event at Ffos Las and he should go well off a 4lb higher mark. Of the remainder, Orange Martini makes the most appeal.
