Flower Youmzain has improved with each outing, with her latest effort seeing her finish third at Beverley. Kevin Ryan's filly should give another good account, but there are others open to more improvement, with ORFILIA topping the bill. The Too Darn Hot filly posted a respectable fourth on her opening bid at Redcar and a race of this nature looks within her compass. Sunset Cove may enjoy this step up in distance and is feared most.

There was a lot to like about STATE OF GOLD's all-the-way win on her nursery bow at Beverley last month and there could be more to come. A 5lb higher mark for Craig Lidster's filly could prove to be lenient and she may be served the most resistance by Fast Performer. Although the son of Showcasing was underwhelming on his latest fourth at Newmarket, his debut second at Nottingham suggests an opening mark of 72 is workable. North Star Kodi is the pick of the remainder.

Although Blue Hercules has yet to make a breakthrough victory, he has posted several creditable efforts in defeat this season and is expected to be involved at the business end. However, the three-year-old may have to play second fiddle once again, with smart hurdler LORD BYRON edging the vote. A runner-up on his most recent outing in a Grade 1 at Punchestown, he could have too much class reverting to the level. Impierious and Flagbearer are other key contenders.

This is really open and only a tentative vote can go to COTAI STARLIGHT with that in mind. Katie Scott's filly was reeled in late by Royal Duke over C&D recently, with the pair clear of the third Never Dark. She's 1lb better off with the former and could gain compensation under her ideal conditions. Musselburgh victor Albegone is respected along with Go Victor, while it's hard to dismiss Opal Storm and Solid Bond too.

Previous C&D winner DREAM FOREVER was no match for a well-handicapped rival at Newcastle next time, but that was still a fine effort from Jedd O'Keeffe's gelding, who is taken to regain the winning thread. Donald went close at the Gosforth Park venue latest and is high on the shortlist as a result, while others to note include Zous Juice and Run This Way.

Ripon winner Zermatt Star and Hostility, who scored over C&D on his penultimate start, hold solid claims on recent form, while Bellasio goes well here and is dangerous to underestimate, despite posting a couple of below-par efforts since he won here in July. However, there could be some value up for grabs with EPIDAVROS, who won this off 3lb higher in 2024 and the fitting of first-time blinkers could be instrumental in Katie Scott's mare staging a revival back here.

SANDY CRAIC appeals back over 7f for the fist time since the consistent three-year-old won over C&D in June. Albeseeingyer was a well-held third on that occasion and can again go close with cut in the ground still a potential source for improvement. Von Trotter has thrived since being stepped up in trip and is capable of being on the premises, while the stable companions Monsieur Kodi and They All Know Me warrant betting checks in an open contest.
