Strong Flame and Adelasia are very interesting newcomers, the latter having cost 300,000 euros as a yearling, but it could pay to side with Richard Fahey's once-raced filly ABBEY ANGEL. Despite running green, she shaped with tons of promise on her introduction over 6f at Haydock and there is no telling how much she will have learned from the experience. Crystal Malt, Caltra Colleen and Our Kylie also shaped with promise first time out.

There is no denying that Sellingallthetime was visually very impressive at Southwell, but he needs to prove that he is as effective on turf and this assignment is slightly tougher also. Semaral was much improved on her latest start and has a squeak if progressing again, but MAIDEN APPROACH gets the nod. She shaped as though the extra quarter-mile would suit when runner-up at Newcastle, and Ryan Moore is a positive jockey booking.

ANNE'S VALENTINO will arrive full of confidence after notching up a Musselburgh/Redcar double last month and with a further 4lb rise in the handicap deemed quite generous, she is fancied to complete the hat-trick. Kathlatino backed up her 1m4f Newcastle head defeat when scoring over the same C&D last time (My Destination second) and she should be on the premises once more, while Blue Top is just 2lb higher than when winning at Redcar in September.

FOREVER NOW showed that he has improved a fair bit from two to three years when runner-up behind the well-regarded Wonderstruck on his seasonal reappearance at Newmarket and with the scope to step forward again, he should make it third-time lucky. The obvious danger is Goodwood second Altaayil, although Asteroidea will be out to prove that her Pontefract second behind subsequent winner Roseburg was no fluke.

Secret Witness lost little in defeat when beaten a neck and a nose into third over the minimum trip at York and he merits consideration off 3lb higher, but preference is for the less exposed GOLDEN STEPS. Marco Botti's gelding built on his runaway maiden success when chasing home the promising Kickboxer on his handicap debut at Leicester, and with Ryan Moore taking over from apprentice jockey Marc Monaghan, he boasts solid claims. Wolverhampton scorer Crisis Averted adds further spice to the race.

Simply Shining has been hammering on the door and should be in the shake-up again, but KIWI BAY shades the verdict. Each of his three performances as a nine-year-old have been encouraging, and despite being raised 2lb in the handicap for his three-parts-of-a-length defeat at Carlisle, he remains well treated on his very best form. Glorious Star is unexposed and has William Buick doing the steering, but the form of his Yarmouth third has since been let down.

Hiking did very little wrong as a juvenile and should figure prominently on her reappearance, but she could struggle to concede race-fitness and 4lb to GILBEY'S MATE. Already proven that he has progressed from two to three years, he only found Lesha (beaten a short-head at Haydock on Wednesday) too good over C&D last time and makes plenty of appeal lining up off the same mark in first-time cheekpieces. Flycatcher and Sahra Al Khadra are just a couple more with claims.
