All of these have claims but marginal preference is for ROXA LOVE. George Boughey's filly arrives here on the back of a maiden win at Brighton followed by a novice success under a penalty at Wolverhampton a month ago. Those efforts suggest that a mark of 82 should be workable for the daughter of Havana Grey. Needin' U is another with strong claims, while Princesse D'orange and Dubai Charm complete the shortlist.

EDWARDTHENINTH had plenty in hand when scoring over C&D at the end of August and the five-year-old is clearly the one to beat again, despite a 7lb rise. Lady Of Clover has not been disgraced on either start since her Lingfield win a couple of months ago and could pose the biggest threat to the selection, although Wedonttellthetruth and Time Turner are also noted.

SUMMER IN PARIS was only narrowly denied when second in a Leicester maiden a couple of weeks ago and the daughter of Wootton Bassett will not find many better opportunities than this to get off the mark. Any market support for Master Of The Sky would have to be noted on his belated racecourse debut, while Emtinan is the pick of the remainder.

COURAGE BEST improved for a step up to this distance when a never-nearer second at Brighton and a breakthrough victory might beckon. A 2lb rise for Rod Millman's filly looks workable and she could take some stopping if running to a similar level on her all-weather debut. Thunda Struck has posted two sound efforts in defeat in nursery company and she's feared most, ahead of Temple Court.

A slow start impacted Hello You Ten when a beaten favourite at Brighton and it is too early to be writing him off. That said, being drawn nine could make life tough for the son of Hello Youmzain and it's difficult to get away from REVOKED. Clive Cox's inmate appeared outpaced when third on his nursery debut over 7f here and this extra furlong could be the making of him. Lunar Blossom and Astral Calling are others to consider.

POETS PRAISE rewarded her supporters when running out a ready winner on her handicap bow at Sandown in August. A 7lb higher mark shouldn't stop the three-year-old's progress and there should be more to come. Likeness wasn't disgraced when stepping up in class and finishing third at Epsom recently, so she may give the selection most to think about, ahead of Rogue Citation.

CAPTAIN CESS boasts the most convincing recent form and is the one to be with in this company. Ernie's Valentine is feared most after a good second over C&D most recently, while Union Island lurks on a dangerous mark and could be thereabouts again after hinting at a revival at Ayr last time. The stable companions Enpassant and King Of York tend to go well here and neither should be underestimated.

DORIGO takes a drop in class and is hard to oppose at this level. Having attempted to make all before finishing eighth in the Goffs Million at the Curragh most recently, dropping back into maiden company could work the oracle here. Cool King has been consistent in defeat so far and has solid enough credentials to be on the premises, while Christmas Is Comin has some appeal after a promising second at Wolverhampton. Edge of Desire and Maeveontime are interesting newcomers.

NOSTRUM is attractive turned out under a 5lb penalty for his win over a mile here on Saturday. That was a gritty performance and the Mick Appleby-trained six-year-old will be tough to master if he's in the same frame of mind. Supreme Clarets has won two of his last three starts and is not taken lightly, while fellow last-time-out winners Not That Guy and the returning Enacting merit betting checks.
