It's hard to get away from the hat-trick seeking SATYRESS, who is two from three this year and continues to go from strength to strength. A 2lb rise for her most recent success at Hamilton might prove to be lenient and she is the one to beat. Lawmans Blis won a classified stakes on his first appearance for Jessica Macey and needs considering, while Mr Withington isn't ruled out either.

Amidst The Chaos occupied the runner-up berth at Doncaster last month and should remain competitive off the same mark, but it's JUNKYARD DOG who makes the most appeal. Iain Jardine's gelding got up to score by a neck over 1m3f at Southwell on his return to the all-weather last time and could go in again. Shimmering Sands has been in brilliant form this year and is one to watch.

Quiet Summer showed a fair amount of improvement when hitting the woodwork over 1m4f at Kempton last month and commands respect, but this looks a good opportunity for INTERSTATE to get off the mark. The Gosdens' colt was beaten a neck into second off a mark of 81 at Sandown last time and first-time blinkers might eke out the improvement required to go one better. Treble Bass can beat newcomer Brittunculi home for third.

Positive riding tactics and stepping up in trip with a first-time visor added was a good combination for HOME SECRETARY when he got off the mark at Lingfield in July. A 9lb rise for that ready success might be inconsequential for Sir Mark Prescott's improving three-year-old, given he benefits from a 10lb weight-for-age allowance on this occasion. Tarbat Ness is a previous C&D winner who can make a fist of things, while It's All About You is a more convincing option for third than Sharona.

MUSSAB, a creditable third in the Norfolk at Royal Ascot before being pitched into the Gimcrack at York's Ebor festival, is hard to oppose back in novice company after those Group 2 assignments. This is a much easier chance for the son of Ten Sovereigns to get off the mark. The Amo-owned What A Girl Wants has been highly tried herself and should play a leading role on her first start for Nigel Tinkler, while Caelum, a half-brother to Champions Sprint winner Powerful Glory, has to be of interest on debut.

YAAHOBBY is a dual C&D winner that won't need to raise his game by much to get back to winning ways. Having generally found things happening too quickly over 6f this season, reverting to his optimum distance can be the source of a return to form by Antony Brittain's seven-year-old. Victory Sound and Willowinghurn have hinted at revivals and also warrant betting checks, while Turbo Command is another track-and-trip winner to consider off 12lb below his last winning rating.

ASADJUMEIRAH won this last season and returns on exactly the same mark. He has a career record of six wins, along with numerous placed efforts over C&D, and was not disgraced on his last start when sixth here, only beaten a length and a half. Tommie's Angel has shown signs of ability and could take a step forward, although Dream Forever looks the bigger danger if the blinkers work for a second time after his Carlisle success.

TOMORROW DAY failed to reward favourite backers when a half-length second over C&D in March, but he has won five times here, with three of those victories off higher marks. If the five-year-old is ready to roll after his break, he can see off Em Jay Kay, who is well-handicapped on his best form but is an irregular winner. Little Beck Annie and Tickets are others for the shortlist.

HARB was an easy winner at Beverley on Sunday and is turned out quickly under a 4lb penalty before the handicapper can reassess him. That was on heavy ground, but he has won five times on the all-weather and arrives at the top of his game. Too Much found a better race beyond him when fifth here last month but may be better judged on his win here in July off 6lb lower which makes him a player, while Hurt You Never is another to at least consider.
