Nico's Having Fun has form that ties in with a few of these and is unlikely to be far away, while Tapit's Direction also needs to be taken seriously, despite still being a maiden after seven attempts. Nevertheless, SOLOMONS GOLD has the best place record of this bunch and is fancied to gain an overdue first career success.

All of these have questions to answer for one reason or another, but TIME MISS at least looks likely to appreciate dropping in class. She shades preference over Bahamian Baby and Let's Go Philly in a race where the betting might provide the most significant clues.

Astral Weeks has form that ties in with a few of these and is shortlist material. Similar comments apply to Super Curioso, who is one to note in the betting on his debut for a new trainer. However, it can pay to stick with LEOPARDI, who came good again when returned to this trip here 13 days ago and a repeat dose would make him hard to beat.

FULL NELSON must hold every chance if bouncing back to the form that saw him finish second on his penultimate outing over C&D. No Problem Joe and Texas Air Force can give him the most to think about.

MAKE DECISIONS has been in terrific form of late and the hat-trick looks like a distinct possibility for the son of Into Mischief. That may be at the main expense of Fly The W and The Best Distance.

FREEDOM PRINCIPLE had Reminder (third) behind when runner-up over C&D last time out and he is taken to go one better. Newcomer Grand Tower is not to be underestimated.

GITANA is expected to complete her hat-trick following back-to-back course successes, although The Mrs and Gunesh should give the six-year-old plenty to think about.

LORD EDDARD STARK appeared to relish the return to further when winning here last month, and a similar display could see him repeat the dose. Chaina and the in-form Street Glide are feared most.
