Brummell warrants serious consideration in first-time cheekpieces for the stable that won this last year, although he did disappoint at Haydock. Bolo Neighs stayed on strongly to win at Ascot and, after only 11 starts, he could have more to offer but a chance is taken on BALDOMERO. A running-on third over 5f at Doncaster, he races off a mark he can comfortably handle and won't mind any cut in the ground.

Comic Hero could prove popular after being beaten a neck at Newmarket, but he has 4lb more and needs to cope with a rise in class. Masked Warrior got off the mark at the fourth attempt at Kempton and could go well on his handicap debut, but Hugo Palmer's PENNY TIME is preferred. An easy winner at Southwell, he then ran into a smart one in Goldinthesea at the same track and may find this easier pickings.

If Invicta Rose is turned around quickly after finishing fourth following a slow start at Salisbury on Tuesday, she would be of interest with the added furlong in her favour. Dream On Kent ran better than his finishing position suggests when eighth on his debut here and is worth a close market watch, but NAVY LIGHT has the form in the book. Fourth at Ripon and then outpaced over 5f at Beverley, this distance may be just what he needs.

Ultrasoul was all out to score over an extended mile at Nottingham in October and is of interest on his return to action. Rastnet has been thereabouts in each of her four starts in handicap company and can go well, but the vote goes to VINCENT ROCKS. Hugo Palmer's charge bounced back to form when third over a mile at Pontefract in April and this step back up in trip looks the right move.

Rosenpur made every yard of the running to record his third course success last month and should mount a bold bid from the front again. Thirsk scorer Al Hussar is another to note, but VINTAGE CLARETS returned to form when filling the runner-up spot in the Dash at Epsom last week and a repeat of that performance would make him tough to beat.

A couple of these are expected to improve from recent comeback runs, including It's All About You. He scored off a similar mark over C&D last summer, but it's SAVROLA who makes most appeal. Dianne Sayer's charge struggled over a shorter trip at Hamilton on his first start since going close at York last July, but a reproduction of that effort on the Knavesmire should see him bang there at the finish. Solar Pass and Cascade Hall look the pick of the remainder.

A change of scenery seems to have worked the oracle for SHIPSHAPE. The son of New Bay has won two of his five starts so far for Bernard Llewellyn's yard and, having scored with plenty left in the tank at Hamilton last time, he looks one to keep on the right side of. Narrowly defeated at Wolverhampton last month, Free Speech returns to the turf with solid claims, while Newtown Duke is another to consider.
