We Ride At Dawn displayed her quirky side before going on to score for the first time at Sandown last time. Although upped 5lb in the handicap, that was just her seventh start and there may well be more to come. Raintown kept on late to score over C&D and commands respect, but GREY FOX is preferred. Only beaten a neck off 1lb lower at Windsor, despite a difficult passage, he has won six times off higher marks and looks poised to strike.

Dontlookbackinanga showed plenty of promise when fourth at Sandown on his only start, despite racing keenly, and of those with racecourse experience, he looks the standout to improve. Quicken Away is a 500,000gns Frankel yearling debuting for Andrew Balding and is worth a market watch, but SOCKDOLAGER catches the eye. A Ghaiyyath colt out of a New Approach mare, his pedigree suggests he may be the best suited to racing over a mile.

SWEETWONDERFULYOU caught the eye at Ascot when finishing third after meeting plenty of trouble in running. She looks sure to learn from the experience and may make it second-time lucky. Art Of Life is capable of further progression after her runner-up effort here last month, while Isabella De Vega is also noted having stayed on well during her Thirsk introduction.

EVENFALL landed the odds at Yarmouth on debut with the minimum of fuss. She picked up nicely to get the better of a subsequent winner and this extra furlong is expected to suit George Boughey's potentially smart filly. The selection is entered in the Cheveley Park, and so is last month's Ascot winner Sorrengail, who looks the main danger with further progress anticipated. Coat Of Red and Spirit Of Lyra are others of interest.

Beverley winner Fast Track holds solid claims on the back of going close in a tough conditions race at Goodwood, but a chance is taken on the returning EFSIXTEEN. George Scott's filly left a good impression when making a winning debut at Newmarket back in May, having cost 350,000gns at the Craven Breeze-up. Several winners have come out of that race and the daughter of Havana Grey could make a bold bid. Acclamation Star and Acting Lady are others of note dropped in trip.

ZATSGOOD was picked off late over a mile at Newcastle last time. The winner has won again since, so that form looks solid enough and the son of Frankel is taken to go one better on his return to turf. Lyra Lea scored with a bit in hand at Sandown and is upped in class with a shout, while Lightning Polka could land a blow and Deauville winner Scutari is also worth a second glance in an open affair debuting for Karl Burke.

Form Snapshot

The richest three-year-old Arabian race in Europe has attracted a quality field. Amir Athbah and RB Tryst are promising individuals and are open to lots of improvement, whilst Lella De La Gloire has claims if returning to the form of her first run. Eljas Du Bien and NEHMO DE CARRERE appear the most solid options. The former boasts the best form and is getting weight from the main market rival. The latter is narrowly preferred though at likely bigger odds.
