CANDONOMORE shaped with a considerable amount of promise in three starts as a juvenile with placed efforts at York and Thirsk before returning to the Knavesmire to finish fifth in a valuable EBF contest. Stepping up in trip this season is likely to see Tim Easterby's colt improve further on what he has achieved so far. Welcome Dream may have needed his return effort at Newcastle in February and appears to be the obvious threat. Newcomers Dubai First and Unique Spirit command respect.
There's not much to separate CANDONOMORE and Welcome Dream but the former probably has the greater scope for further progress after only 3 starts and has proven himself on today's ground so he gets the nod.
Has won nine races from 6f to 7f on ground varying from good to soft to heavy. A winner at 9-1 at Thirsk over 6f (soft) on his latest outing earlier this month, beating Slainte Mhath by 2 1/4l.

TRILBY ran out a comfortable victor on his return to action at Catterick before not getting much luck in running at Pontefract on Monday. Reverting to 6f has to be a positive for Sam England's gelding and it would be no surprise if he bounced back to winning ways. Harry's Halo improved from his seasonal debut when runner-up at Thirsk and enters calculations along with Sacred Falls, a winner on soft ground at Ayr in October who shaped well on her reappearance at Southwell.
SACRED FALLS proved to be a model of consistency on turf last season and entitled to be sharper for her reappearance run at Southwell 16 days ago, she could be worth siding with to build on that with victory here. Cold Stare cashed in on his reduced mark at Thirsk and he's a danger, with Harry's Halo and Havana Rum another couple to consider.
Has won eight races from 1m to 1m 2f on ground varying from good to soft to heavy. Finished 16l behind Tribalist when sixth of 10 at 9-4fav on her latest outing at Saint-Cloud over 1m (heavy) in November last year.

EARLS has caught the eye on both starts at the Curragh this season, with a fifth in the Irish Lincolnshire backed up by an agonising defeat last Saturday. Despite being 2lb higher and dropping back a furlong, Gavin Cromwell's seven-year-old should relish these conditions and take advantage of what may be a decent bit of placement. Sparks Fly was one of the stories of 2023, winning on eight occasions including a Listed contest in France, but she will need to be at her very best to defy a rating of 107. With that in mind, the main dangers could prove to be Rainbow Fire, who won this contest off the same mark 12 months ago, and Gweedore.
Marco Botti has his string in good nick so his handily-weighted RAINBOW FIRE is fancied to repeat his success in this event 12 months ago. Irish challenger Earls shaped well when runner-up in a big field at the Curragh last time out and heads the list of dangers, although the returning Gweedore, 2022 winner Boardman and C&D scorer Zip also enter calculations.
A winner at 6f on good to soft ground. Beaten a head by Speeding Bullet when second of 11 at 8-1 on his latest outing at Newmarket over 7f (soft) in October last year.

SHELBOURNE accounted for a few of these rivals when winning well over 6f at Catterick earlier in the month and George Scott's gelding is hard to oppose off a 6lb higher mark here. Princess Alex was back in fourth on that occasion and could prove to be the main threat to the selection, although The Smiling Wolf should not be underestimated on his return to action.
SHELBOURNE underlined his liking for testing conditions when an impressive winner at Catterick on return and, on similar ground, he's capable of following up if the trip doesn't stretch him. Miners Gamble is likely to up his game over the longer trip and Princess Alex should be better for her reappearance.
Won on her latest outing when 2-1fav at Newmarket over 7f (soft) in October last year, beating So Logical by 3/4l.

SHEMOZZLE created a big impression when justifying favouritism on debut over 7f at Newmarket in October and the daughter of Gleneagles is hard to oppose, despite having to carry a 5lb penalty for that success. Graecia was far from disgraced on her racecourse bow as a juvenile and she should not be underestimated, while any market support for Karl Burke's 270,000gns newcomer Bright Thunder would have to be noted.
There was plenty to like about the way SHEMOZZLE knuckled down against a rival with a run under her belt when making a winning debut at Newmarket in the autumn and this looks a good opportunity for her to defy a penalty. Bright Thunder looks an interesting newcomer so must be respected for a yard that can ready one.
He has won three times from 5f to 7f on soft and heavy ground. Finished 2 1/4l behind Apiarist when fourth of 16 at 13-2 on his latest outing at York over 7f (soft) in October last year.

Something of an eyecatcher when keeping on late in the piece at Kempton, having been outpaced, VON BAER should come on plenty for that run and stepping up from 7f could be just what the doctor ordered. Brian Meehan's colt displayed plenty of ability as a two-year-old and he can get off the mark at the main expense of Aragon Castle, who is much better than he showed on his return at Bath. Invincible Aura was never a factor at Epsom on Tuesday, while Offer And Receive and Nellie Leylax are worth noting now they swerve Friday's Sandown engagements.
This looks like a good opportunity for VON BAER to open his account, The Brian Meehan-trained colt achieved a pretty useful level of form last season and his reappearance third at Kempton was encouraging. Aragon Castle was well below par on return at Bath but can be expected to leave that behind here and he is feared most. Offer And Receive is open to improvement and should also have a part to play if he takes his chance (due to run at Sandown on Friday).
A winner at 7f on the all-weather. Beaten 2 1/4l by Superb Force when second of 8 at 4-1 on his latest outing at Newcastle over 1m last month.

This can go the way of the consistent NORTHERN CRACKSMAN, who has been placed on three of his last four starts and may appreciate a return to the turf being related to the smart Raadobarg. Just under a length ahead of the selection when touched off at Southwell last month, Quick Away is expected to be thereabouts, along with the unexposed Minstrel Knight. Frightening must be monitored for market support on her first start for new connections.
NORTHERN CRACKSMAN was a touch keener than ideal when finishing runner-up at Newcastle earlier this month so, with more severe headgear enlisted, Brian Ellison's charge is fancied to go a place better at the expense of Quick Away, who showed improved form under a canny front-running ride when second last time and looks sure to be in the mix again. Amancio and Due Consideration can do battle for third.
