BRONTE BEACH looked a different proposition when stepped up to 1m6f at Southwell with a first-time hood applied and a 10lb rise might not be enough to stop Archie Watson's filly from backing that victory up. Gallus Norman (second) ran the best race of his career to date when ahead of Star Of Markinch (fourth) over the extended mile and a half here and is expected to uphold the form. However, a bigger threat may come from Zimmerman after his runner-up effort at Catterick.

ANNA BELARDO displayed plenty of speed before weakening in the closing stages on his second start at Kempton and the drop back from 6f gives him the chance to get off the mark. Explainingislosing is entitled to build on his Beverley fifth earlier this month, while others for the shortlist include Cailin Aine, a beaten favourite at Thirsk last weekend, and Furturra.

Blakefell was thrown into the deep end in a couple of valuable sales contests before filling the runner-up spot over C&D in November. The son of Kodi Bear has had wind surgery ahead of his return to the track, but the vote goes to WHERNSIDE. Ed Bethell's gelding finished second twice in April, including on his turf debut at Redcar, and that effort arguably sets the standard. You Will See appears best of the remainder.

KRISSY returned to turf with a C&D success and arrives following a fine runner-up effort over further at Hamilton on Sunday. Jim Goldie opts to take advantage before she gets a new rating and the five-year-old has every chance of going one better. Glasses Up has to be a live threat based on his third at Ayr, and don't rule out On The Bubble following her second here last month.

Bellarchi failed in her bid for a hat-trick when ninth in a class 2 event at Chester, although there will be plenty who keep faith in her. Persuasion struck over C&D on his penultimate start and is considered, but the vote goes to WILD NATURE. Ed Bethell's charge went in by a neck at Kempton when last seen in November and could record his first victory on turf.

Star Cast just did enough to complete a double at Ripon earlier in the month and she is respected, but the step back up in trip poses question marks. With that in mind, ALPINE SIERRA gets the vote. Jim Goldie's inmate comfortably regained the winning thread at Hamilton at the start of the month and can go in again. Just Dottie is another to note.

CANARIA QUEEN failed to supplement her Doncaster triumph when only sixth at Ayr, but she remains on a workable mark and the booking of Paul Mulrennan catches the eye. Sir Benedict hasn't been disgraced in any of his three starts since joining the Ben Haslam yard and he is one to take seriously along with Ganesha, who lurks on an appealing rating in first-time cheekpieces.
