FEARLESSLY couldn't quicken when asked to make her winning challenge at Kempton 226 days ago, but is likely to have strengthened up plenty since and should appreciate this step up in distance on her turf bow. A mark of 71 is surely there to be taken advantage of and she can prove too strong for Born Leader, who was beaten a combined total of 66 lengths in three maiden starts before a much-improved third on his handicap debut three weeks ago. Recent Ripon scorer Stone Cougar is also taken seriously.

COOL SPHERE was deemed good enough to take his chance in the Group 2 Norfolk at Royal Ascot nine days ago and will quite clearly find this test much easier. The two-year-old previously finished second to a potentially smart winner on debut at Leicester, and the 120,000gns buy can open his account on this quicker surface. Raahy has shown potential in two starts and has the speed to cope with this drop back to 5f, while X Force could prove best of the newcomers given time.

SPANISH STAR has the best recent form on offer having won two of his last three starts and could improve on that record further for Patrick Chamings despite now racing off a career-high mark. This four-year-old handles varying ground conditions and looks a more solid option than Enthaar, who has found one too good on three of his last six starts, and Arzaak, who drops in class and is now 7lb below his last winning mark on turf.

INSPIRED THOUGHT backed up her 6f victory at Redcar when striking at Hamilton earlier this month and impressed with the way she travelled through the latter contest. A 3lb rise could prove workable for Archie Watson's charge, who drops back in trip and is taken to notch a hat-trick. Peggie Sue is rated 6lb higher than when scoring at Nottingham last month but is considered the main danger ahead of consistent three-year-old Shining.

THREE C'S faded in the final furlong when third over 7f here last time and looks well worth a try over this shorter trip. Classy Cailin finished ninth behind the selection that day but may be able to narrow the gap now fitted with first-time cheekpieces on her debut for Pam Sly. The pick of the remainder may be Hello Girl, who was far from disgraced when fifth in a handicap at Yarmouth last time.

Newcomer CROCHET makes a fair amount of appeal on pedigree, his dam being a half-sister to Listed winner Barsanti, and she represents a stable more than capable of readying one on debut with Oisin Murphy booked for the ride. She is taken to get the better of Nottingham scorer Tabassor, who is entitled to run well under a penalty, and Alfred Boucher, who is better than his handicap debut at Kempton suggests.

YOUR MOTHERS' EYES boasts the most consistent profile in the field, having won at Brighton in May and placed three times since cheekpieces were applied at the end of April, and Alan Bailey's colt can return to winning ways in a contest that features very few runners in form. Song of The Isles won over C&D at the start of the month and boasts solid credentials off 6lb higher, while Stay Forever completes the shortlist on her second at Salisbury last time.
