There are races to be won with Calypso Magic but he was a costly failure at Hamilton and is passed over in favour of newcomer TASFEYA. Mark Johnston's Derby entry is a half-brother to the stable's Middle Park winner Awzaan and that colt was able to score at the first time of asking. Somerset Island is another interesting debutant and bears close attendance in the market, while Pearl Arch is entitled to improve from an ordinary Ffos Las run.

TAROOQ confirmed the promise of his second to Mata Keranjang bv filling the same position over 1m2f at Ripon, where his fading finish suggested reverting to this mile is what he requires at present. He can break through at the expense of Apache Warrior, who also took runner-up honours at the same North Yorkshire venue and will strip fitter for that introduction. The beautifully-bred Wild Geese was beaten a long way at Hamilton and is best watched for now.

Mottley Crewe has an advantage of recent experience over his principal rivals here, but GOLD GLEAM is a rare runner for Jeremy Noseda at this venue and the booking of Paul Hanagan has not gone unnoticed. He made no impact on his handicap debut at Yarmouth at the beginning of July although, at this level, is still preferred to Erfaan, who has an even lengthier absence to overcome, but his fourth to Humidor at Doncaster has been boosted by two subsequent successes for the winner.

NEEDY McCREDIE has just failed to reward favourite-backers the last twice, but the assessor continues to take a chance with her and she can make it 12th-time lucky. Soft ground brought about a reversal in fortunes for Fair Bunny here so these conditions aren't ideal. In contrast, Red River Boy bounced off the quick ground to just prevail at Catterick and tackles an extra furlong, whereas This Ones For Eddy drops back from 7f and could be tapped to toe.

Richard Fahey is represented by Peters Spirit here, so it is interesting that Paul Hanagan has instead opted to partner Jim Goldie's EILEAN MOR, who was ahead of Fahey's charge when third at Ayr and he is taken to reverse the form with runner-up Ajaafa on 3lb better terms. Princess Dayna ran better than her 100-1 SP suggested she would when fourth at Thirsk and steps into handicap company now, as do Yachtmaster and Reason To Believe.

CALL OF DUTY brings a strong level of consistency into this, having made the frame on each of his last eight outings, and even though his strike-rate could be better, he gets the nod. Prime Circle is also holding his form well, however his most recent appearance came in claiming company. Muftarres took second at that level before returning to Redcar for a fair fifth in a 1m2f handicap, while dropping from that trip to this mile saw Scarab take a step forward when fourth here.

Peter's Gift was just touched off by the in-form Social Rhythm at Musselburgh on Friday and if those exertions haven't taken their toll, he should be thereabouts. Morocchius also played second fiddle to Social Rhythm last time and is edging ever nearer to the winner's enclosure, but he may have to wait a little bit longer because a recent second over this course and distance heralded a return to form for ALWAYS DAZZLING, who has dropped to a tantalising handicap mark.

The performance of Always Dazzling in the first division will provide a guide to the chances of CLUMBER PLACE, who beat Mark Johnston's charge here last week and is taken to defy her 6lb penalty. Geojimali is on a losing run that stretches back over two years but his turn is shortly imminent after his solid third over a mile at this track recently. Ingleby King's best effort came over 6f on soft ground so conditions aren't right, although he has more scope for improvement than any of his rivals.
