ALMALEKIAH went very close in a Dundalk maiden last time and a reproduction of that effort might be good enough to go one better this evening. Golden Pursuit shaped nicely on his debut here and, with improvement likely, he should be on the premises, while Red Tulip should also come on for her debut experience and she can make her presence felt. Gold Beau and Alhaarth Beauty are others to consider.

ABOVE STANDARD has been raised 11lb for his four-length defeat of Ginger Ted over this C&D last week and that form was franked by the runner-up earlier this week. Thanks to a 1lb rise and a 6lb penalty, Stuart Williams' representative is only 4lb better off with the selection and that might not be enough to reverse the form. Song Of Parkes has been hit with a 6lb rise for her C&D success last week but she still makes the shortlist, along with Mcmonagle.

It might be worth taking a chance on L'ASTRE DE CHOISIR. He has been struggling on turf of late but he has dropped to a very attractive mark and the application of blinkers could be the catalyst for a revival. Mon Ami Jolie has not been seen since disappointing when favourite for an Ascot handicap in May but he merits the utmost respect on his return to action. Drive Home, Gap Princess and Blown It also make the shortlist.

A Little Bit Dusty was well beaten over hurdles last time but he had previously run out an impressive winner of a Haydock handicap on the level and he has the joint-highest official rating in the line-up, so he must be respected. CAPE SAFARI shares the same rating and she receives weight from all her rivals. Dropping into a claimer for the first time, she could be the one to beat. Star Date, Boa and the in-form Xpres Maite all have claims in an open heat.

Progenitor is on an upward curve and a 5lb rise for his C&D success last time out might not halt his progress. Lea Valley Black is on a hat-trick following two wins in plating company and he is respected, along with Girl Of Cadiz and Sekumkum. It may be worth taking a chance on ALFIES ROSE, who has shown just glimmers of promise in maidens but there could be more to come from him now he tackles handicap company for the first time off a mark of 62.

DESERT VISION returned to form to land a claimer over this C&D earlier this month and a reproduction of that effort would make him a leading contender again tonight. Demolition has solid claims on the form of his Ripon second last time and he looks a likely player, especially as he has won on the two occasions he has contested claimers previously. Brocklebank, Kyllachy Star and Bint Alzain are others to consider.

CHEERS FOR THEA has not won for over two years but she has dropped to an attractive mark and she took a step in the right direction here last time. Zaina had to settle for second best behind No Poppy at Musselburgh latest but she should be on the premises this evening, along with Ukranian Prince, who finished runner-up to Tiradito here last time. Talk Of The North is also worth a second glance.

QUIET APPEAL put some disappointing efforts behind her when runner-up over this C&D last time and she might be ready to take advantage of her attractive handicap mark. Kittens comes into this in decent form and she should not be underestimated, with the hat-trick seeking Kathleensluckylad also highly respected. Bobs Her Uncle can also take a hand and Thecornishcockney can make his presence felt.
