DIAMOND TIARA wasn't disgraced when not supported on debut. She should enjoy the extra but has a wide draw. RARING TO GO showed good improvement in her second start and should have no problem with the trip. TENDER MIST looks sure to improve from pole position. ISABELLE attracted some money on debut so must be respected.

TRADING PROFIT and NEUF DE PAPE both drifted in the betting on their debuts but weren't disgraced. They will come on heaps and could fight it out. LORD VICTORIOUS is improving with racing and a good barrier position will help. MALEK EL MOOLOOK, KING'S DRIVE and SCHILLACI have money chances but have drawn wide. Watch newcomers.

This is not a strong maiden plate and two-year-old first-timer BESPOKEN could win if has any ability. STRICTLYCUMDANCIN has been threatening for a while now. She is not going to Hollywood but holds FIESTA DE ESPANA and CHAMPION ALAMI on collateral form. She hasn't the best of draws. Other two-year-old TONY THE REBEL as well as MAJESTICK K and ROYAL WHISTLE could earn.

BLAZING BRAVE finished just ahead of RAFA last time after losing 2 lengths at the start. The latter, however, has been holding form and could reverse it. ASHANTEE could get away this track and trip. SILVER STATE could prefer this surface and could take home a cheque. Check the first race to gauge the two-year-old form - GENTLEMAN ONLY and ISLAND EXPRESS could be the way to go.

Tricky. KING AND EMPIRE, PACIFIC G and JAY BOY come off maiden wins but look to have scope for improvement. PETRICHOR needed his last run as a gelding and will come on heaps. URGENT FURY was hampered last time and could resume winning ways. NERO, LORD WINDSOR and TUVANO are more for the short list.

ROCKIN THE DAISIES is bang in form and could go in again. However, she meets many on big weight differences especially MARMALADY. The latter is at peak fitness now and 5kg better off for a 3,8 length beating. UNCONDITIONAL is on the upgrade but her form hasn't been franked unlike ARABIAN ARROW who could follow up. Many others have money claims.

LOVE TOKEN may have found the distance on the outside track a bit too much last time. She should go close this venue. If she fluffs her lines any of the remaining runners could win. KRYSTLE CARRINGTON does better at this track. CAPTAIN'S DELIGHT claims 4kg and will stay the extra. Along with stable companion FORTITUDE are in with definite claims.

A good contest. CANDY ROCK comes off his maiden win but impressed and could be up to it. He is coupled with honest top weight GUY FROM DUBAI who never runs a dull race. MAI THAIGA could keep galloping again to double up. LUCKY LUCIANO is a lot better than his last and with MASTER SWITCH and stable companion ARCH RIVAL as well as NOBLE STAR and AUGUSTINUS can earn.

FORT NAVIDAD looks hard to oppose in a moderate line up. He found problems in his last two races and should get his just reward. HIGH DRAMA was rested after his debut and could improve heaps. AMERICAN MAGIC may still find this on the sharp side but has a money chance. CAPUCHE and CRIMSON MAGIC could make up the quartet.
