Micky Hammond has his string in fine form at present and QUOTELINE DIRECT emerged with plenty of credit when third in a similar C&D event two weeks ago. Returning off 1lb lower with top apprentice Sebastian Woods in the plate, he might be able to get the better of Ravenhoe, who has finished third off this mark the last twice. The top-rated Thorntoun Care and past course winner Berlusca are others to note.

Cool Exhibit made no mistake first time out at Nottingham but won't find life easy under a penalty, while Golden Force and Cupboard Love also made encouraging debuts. However, a chance is taken on locally-trained newcomer STARFIGHTER, whose stable have won with one of just two juvenile runners here so far this year. The son of Sea The Stars cost 90,000 euros as a yearling and an entry in the Epsom Derby suggests that he has been showing plenty at home.

PRESIDENTIAL was narrowly denied a hat-trick at Beverley under a 6lb penalty late last month and lines up here off a 1lb lower mark which leaves him 3lb well-in. With that in mind, it would come as no surprise if he bounced back to winning ways and he can go forward dropping back to 6f. Dirchill's recent form gives him a squeak but feared most is Danecase, who performed well in a better heat at Newmarket latest.

Kinaesthesia made a winning debut at Nottingham last November but her performance in the Cheshire Oaks last month was too bad to be true. SACRED PATH is a full-sister to the likes of Gan Amhras, Forever Now and Shantaram and the daughter of Galileo made a very promising start to her career when finishing second at Goodwood two weeks ago. If she can improve for that experience, John Gosden's filly should be very hard to beat. Saving Grace won with more in hand than the final winning distance suggests at Lingfield last time out but her 6lb penalty will make life tougher. Elasia cost 200,000gns as a yearling and she is a half-sister to the 1m2f Listed winner Elas Ruby, while she also shares her page with the high-class stayer Pallasator.

THE LAST EMPEROR struggled in a Listed race when last seen as a juvenile but his previous form suggests that he may be underestimated by a mark of 83. Epaulement made an encouraging handicap debut over an extended mile at Wolverhampton last week and the way he stayed on that day suggests this trip should suit. Kit Marlowe was a tough and consistent two-year-old and it will be interesting to see how well he has trained on.

LAMLOOM has only been narrowly beaten on both starts since his Nottingham win in April and he can return to winning ways while still open to further progression. Saluti bounced back to form last time out and a 4lb rise in the weights for that success should be workable. Balestra is another recent winner to consider, while Club Wexford and Critical Thinking should not be discounted.
