Saeed Bin Suroor has a decent record at Nottingham and there was plenty to like about the debut of COMMANDER COLE earlier this month. The son of Kyllachy cost 150,000gns as a yearling and was unfortunate not to win at Sandown earlier this month when second. Her Terms has finished second on her last three attempts and patience is now wearing thin with William Haggas' charge, while Robert Cowell deserves respect in this race having won it for the last two years and his Majestic Stone has an intriguing profile. Bouquet De Flores completes the shortlist of likely candidates.

A decent looking maiden and WHISPERING BELL is handed the vote to make a winning debut. The daughter of Galileo represents a team that often sends their better debutants to this venue and the 200,000gns purchase can get off to a perfect start. Counterweight should come on for her debut but she would have to find plenty of improvement to land this, while Mistress Quickly is a half-sister to plenty of winners and looks sure to do well next year. Dowalya represents excellent first season sire Sepoy and any market support would be noteworthy.

PACOFILHA has been running creditably in both maiden and nursery company, finishing in the top four on her last three races. Paul Cole's filly wears a tongue-tie for the first time and could be capable of taking advantage of a contest that might not take too much winning. Outre Mer has shaped like one who will relish nursery company and he should have no issues with this trip after seeing out a stiff 1m well at Newmarket last time out, while blinkers made all the difference for Masterofdiscovery when he claimed victory last time out. Mount Moriah also enters calculations.

BEDROCK was touched off by under a length over this trip at Sandown last time but is expected to remain competitive following a 1lb rise and give another good account in receipt of his useful weight-for-age allowance. I Am Not Here rattled the crossbar over 1m4f at Catterick last time and is respected now dropping back in trip, while C&D winner Lord Franklin looked on good terms with himself when scoring at Hamilton last month and is another capable of taking a hand.

MASTER GUNNER stayed on well to score over the extended mile at Wolverhampton last time and is expected to give another good account now returned to turf on an 8lb higher mark. Royal Shaheen is worth a market check now eased into 0-85 company as he's won twice over 7f in Germany, stays this longer trip and could come on for his UK debut run at Chester. The main danger, however, may be recent Newmarket second Tomahawk Kid, who is expected to go well dropping back from 1m2f.

BELLEDESERT struck over C&D two starts ago and although she was held at York last time, she may still be open to a little bit more improvement. Cool Bahamian steps up in grade after scoring over this trip at Newmarket last month and could feasibly play a supporting role, likewise Richard Whitaker's in-form three-year-old Penny Pot Lane and John Quinn representative Ancient Astronaut, who are tied in on their most recent run at Carlisle.

NOBLE ACT hasn't been hit hard for her neck victory over the extended 5f at Brighton and is expected to remain competitive following a 3lb rise. Mysterious Glance has been running creditably in defeat off this mark on the all-weather and should be thereabouts if transferring that form back onto turf. Cockney Island is entitled to come on for her reappearance run at Yarmouth, while it will be interesting to see if first-time cheekpieces can spark some improvement from Billyoakes.
