Flaxen Lake appears to have hit a good spell of form and running 1lb well in at the weights, the course winner must be considered at the shortlist stage. PORTHGWIDDEN BEACH is a well-bred filly clearly on an upward curve and is taken to use her attractive position at the weights to her advantage. There could be plenty more to come from this daughter of Street Cry but keep an eye on C&D winner Lethal who has come back down to what looks a workable mark.

A chance is taken on BRIO in this seller following an improved effort at Leicester when last sighted. The Alan McCabe charge can also boast reasonable all-weather form at Southwell in August and a return to that level can see him get serious at what is likely to be a generous price. Frequency clearly sets the form standard with a winning effort over track and trip already in the book while of the rest, the unexposed gelding Main Beach appeals.

The Roger Varian inmate, Tarkeeba, has by no means disgraced herself in maiden company and commands the utmost respect on her handicap bow off a mark of 72. Preference, however, is for FIRE FIGHTER who represents Sir Mark Prescott (21% strike rate at this track over the last five years) and despite carrying a 6lb penalty for his recent Kempton success, the three-year-old son of Tiger Hill looks a good way ahead of the assessor at present. If I Were A Boy and recent winner Mazagee make most appeal of the remainder.

An interesting maiden heat for punters to solve but it could pay to side with HITMAN HATTON on just his second start after the four-year-old shaped well enough on debut at Leicester in a race which is working out nicely. Chokidar has had plenty of chances for Dandy Nicholls but looks a tough ride despite having the ability to travel well in his races. Tanmawy is the main danger to the selection despite looking exposed as the Ed Dunlop charge was desperately unlucky not to score at Kempton last time.

Several highly respected yards represented in this maiden contest and while Van Rooney is likely to attract considerable support having had the benefit of three runs in Ireland, it is hard to ignore SAMUEL PICKWICK. The Sir Michael Stoute inmate displayed marked improvement at Kempton when last sighted, albeit in a three-runner event, and that particular form behind Tidentime is working out nicely as the Mick Channon charge has acquitted himself with plenty of credit in a valuable sales race since. Solar View and Grizzle are others to consider.

Many of these arrive with form to find and while the 53-rated Kristollini looks feasibly treated, the filly has a tough task on her hands against the boys and, for that reason, SMARTY SAM is preferred. The Paul Midgley yard is flying at present and the four-year-old has been dropped 2lb in the ratings for what was a decent performance over C&D last week. The son of Smarty Jones is now a full 10lb lower than his last winning mark of 63 and a return to his best form could be enough. Yellow Printer rates the pick of the others.

Gee Major was impressive when scoring at Kempton last week but the four-year-old son of Reset is forced to carry a 6lb penalty for that success. For that reason, preference is for FAIRY MIST who looks dangerously well treated towards the foot of the weights, a full 5lb well in. Jason Hart takes off a further 7lb in the saddle and the son of Oratorio looked good when battling to victory at Beverley last week. He escapes a penalty for that success in an apprentice contest and is confidently selected to follow up. C&D winner Excellent Vision is the pick of the remainder.

EMPRESS CHARLOTTE has a respectable record on the all-weather surface having finished runner-up on three of her four starts on this surface. The Michael Bell charge appears versatile in regards to both trip and underfoot conditions and with Kieren Fallon booked in the saddle, connections are clearly expecting another big run following her recent Brighton second. Fluvial is worthy of close consideration if allowed to take her chance following an engagement at Haydock yesterday while Princesse Gaelle ran well enough on her handicap bow and is entitled to improve.
