FORTUNE AND GLORY has been running well all year, never finishing outside of the first four home, and it is that consistency that gives him the edge. American Patrol won well at Lingfield last time out but that was only a selling handicap and this is tougher. Oskemen put in his best effort of the year on his debut for Archie Watson last time out and he should be in the mix once again.

Blame Culture arrives here with an official rating of 82 but, while he can be expected to go well, that mark may flatter him and he is vulnerable to a less exposed type. ALGAFFAAL was a beaten odds-on favourite last time out at Carlisle but it is far too soon to be writing him off. The US-bred colt ran really well on his debut at Newcastle and it may just prove that he is a better on a synthetic surface. Maaward put in a promising effort on his debut last year but Jim Crowley appears to have chosen the selection over this son of Kodiac. Acclafrith is a proven winner but his penalty will make life harder for him.

NAWAR was very green on his debut at Salisbury last month (slow start and pushed along early) but he finished well to claim second. He will need to be sharper to win this novice race but there is a very good chance that he will be. The rest with form do not set a particularly high level but Cottingham and Sharg are the pick of them. The pick of the newcomers are Alshahhad, who is from the family of the 1995 1000 Guineas winner Harayir, and Qallaab.

DEIRA SURPRISE only found the subsequent Group 3 winner Angel's Hideaway too good on her debut at Haydock in June. She was then a beaten 4-11 favourite at Thirsk but that form has worked out well (the second and third have both won since) and the daughter of Slade Power can be given another chance. Summer Blossom finished behind the selection at Haydock but she should be in the mix for the places. Sand Share, who is out of a Listed-placed mare who is closely related to the Group 1 winner Zambezi Sun, and Gleeful are the pick of the newcomers.

RARE shaped encouragingly when second on debut at Lingfield over an extended 1m3f. The experience gained is unlikely to have been lost on Sir Michael Stoute's charge, who could improve for this extra yardage and strike second time out. Hameem picked up minor money over 1m4f at Newmarket latest and is nominated as the main danger, ahead of Elasia, who took a forward step when opening her account at Newcastle.

MAGELLAN returned to winning ways over the extended 1m2f here last time, keeping on well inside the final furlong, and he is expected to appreciate this extra yardage. The thriving Atticus Boy arrives on a four-timer and cannot be ruled out, nor can Native Fighter, who rarely runs a bad race at this venue and could appreciate the drop in grade, having finished fourth in a 0-95 contest here latest.

JUST IN TIME was putting in his best work at the finish when scoring over 1m6f at Sandown last time and he is expected to improve for the step back up in trip. Vis A Vis struck at Sandown on his first start for Neil Mulholland and is open to further improvement for his new stable, while Lord Topper is worth a market check on the back of his hurdles victory at Newton Abbot last month, and could also take a hand.

ROMAN WARRIOR ran well for a long way over 1m at Chepstow last time and could build on that second-placed finish now dropping back in distance. Zaajer has been raised 1lb for finishing third over this trip on his handicap/seasonal bow at Lingfield in May and could feasibly take closer order, while Little Miss Lilly is entitled to improve for the fitting of first-time blinkers and is another for the shortlist.
