DONT TELL NAN was narrowly beaten off 1lb lower at Southwell last time but is expected to remain competitively weighted and gain compensation now switching to this faster surface. First Rebellion drops back in trip after landing minor money over 6f at Wolverhampton and looks nicely treated now eased eased 2lb, while Greek Islands is worth keeping a close eye on in the betting now dropping back from 1m and could also figure.

Khawaater continues to frustrate and managed to find a couple too good when beaten into third at Chepstow last time. His mark of 67 seems a fair assessment of his ability, but there is a good chance that some of the newcomers can perform above that level on their respective debuts this evening. Lady Cecil's representative Sharissima could be one such type, though preference is for Richard Hannon's FRANCISCO, who is a half-brother to the smart Edge Closer, who won two Listed sprints over this trip for the same stable.

Chadic was beaten by five lengths into sixth in Group 2 company at Glorious Goodwood but he hasn't built on that effort as much as hoped so he must raise his game to figure. Instead, preference is for GIBEON, who stayed on strongly when making a winning debut over 7f at Newmarket could feasibly figure if bouncing back from a flat run at Newbury last time. Nona Blu impressed with his attitude when getting up by a neck over C&D last time and merits shortlist inclusion along with 89-rated Marco Botti representative Sharp Sailor.

FLYING MACHINE struck over this trip on his handicap debut at Chester and went close to defying an 8lb rise when beaten by under a length into second at Newmarket last time. Richard Fahey's colt has edged up a further 3lb this evening but remains on an upward curve so is expected to take it in his stride. Bravo Zolo is respected on the back of his C&D victory in a conditions event, while Subversive, who is fitted with first-time blinkers, makes most appeal of the remainder.

DAAREE left behind a couple of disappointing turf efforts when scoring over 1m4f at Wolverhampton last time and it seems he's a stronger performer when operating on an artificial surface. He landed a Polytrack handicap at Wolverhampton earlier in his career and looks open to further improvement off his present rating. Masterpaver is up 4lb for his near miss over C&D latest and has place claims along with Marzante, who went down by a head off 3lb lower at Epsom last time.

FERRYVIEW PLACE bounced back to form with a narrow defeat over track and trip when last sighted and may be capable of defying a 1lb rise to gain compensation. Dark Days landed minor money off this mark over 1m4f at Brighton when last sighted and could emerge as the main danger if reproducing that effort over this slightly shorter trip, while Beep has been eased 1lb for finishing fourth over this trip at Goodwood and could feasibly play a supporting role too.

Celestial Knight has been raised 2lb for his neck victory over 1m here last month but he needed every inch of the trip to score that day, getting on top in the final strides, so he may possibly find this shorter distance on the sharp side this evening. The vote therefore goes to QUEEN AGGIE, who boasts winning form over both 6f and the extended 1m at Wolverhampton, so is unlikely to be fazed by this intermediate distance. Denis Coakley's handicap debutant Mon Cigar is worth a market check, while Princess Spirit is no forlorn hope for a place.

WOTALAD seemed to find his stamina stretched when second over 1m here last time but is expected to improve for the return to 7f, over which he was successful at Wolverhampton in August. Lead A Merry Dance has been outpaced when landing minor money over 6f the last twice and is a potential improver now upped in trip, while C&D winner Arabian Flight also commands plenty of respect, from a good draw, now running under a penalty incurred for his easy Wolverhampton win five days ago.
