The progressive DIVISION is readily suggested as the first one to consider. A full-brother to last year's Lowther winner Celandine, the William Haggas-trained colt built on a promising second on his debut at Windsor with a brace of cosy wins in novice events at Haydock and Yarmouth last month. Under a penalty for the latter, the son of Kingman appears ready for a step up in class. Comical Point is feared the most after his solid fourth-placed finish in the Gimcrack. Flying Comet and Rydale Frosty are other strong contenders.
It's a tight call between FLYING COMET, placed at Group 2 level last time and very much on an upward trajectory and Flowerhead, disappointing last time in a Group 3 when finding the deep ground too much but runner-up in the Group 2 Queen Mary Stakes at Royal Ascot earlier this term with the former just preferred given he arrives in better form and is proven at the trip, where as ther latter still has something to prove beyond 5f. Comical Point was quickly tested in deep waters after winning on debut and whilst not quite cutting the mustard in three G2 events has been far from disgraced and should be much more comfortable in these slightly shallower waters. Yet to race on anything but quick ground Andrew Balding's colt could be suited to a bit more give and is a serious player
Scored by 4 1/4l off 97 at Chester in July and ran to that form when third in the Stand Cup (Listed) at the same track last time. Effective at 10f, acts on good ground and is suited by cut; the handicapper may have caught up.

PER CONTRA is versatile regarding ground and returns here with a big chance of backing up a comfortable success notched at Newcastle 13 days ago. A 6lb higher mark complicates matters, but the Tim Easterby-trained four-year-old counters that with plenty of course experience and has nothing to fear on the forecast going. Fresher than many, Erzindjan has dropped to workable mark and makes the shortlist after just three encouraging runs this season. Tony Montana, Insanity and the class-dropping Grey Cuban are others with solid credentials.
ERZINDJAN ran a cracker in the Cambridgeshire a few weeks back and that can be upgraded a little as he did best of those drawn very high and, off just a pound higher mark with a slightly less onerous task, he has every chance of landing a first win on fourth attempt for his new connections. He's rated a fair bit higher in the past and looks the one to beat. Albany is interesting back here after going so close on penultimate run over a bit further. If she can keep tabs early and not fall too far behind Ralph Beckett's mare should prove a big threat given some scope for further improvement. Champagne Prince is a real form threat but could be a bit tapped for toe back in trip so Tony Montana is feared more, arriving in peak form and with multiple placed efforts in ultra-competitive events this term, including a fine second at the Curragh last time
Produced a fine effort in a tricky race to assess when second, beaten a neck, in a novice at Kempton last time. Effective over 7f or 8f and handles a sound surface; difficult to gauge but could be very smart.

Soon after making an impressive winning debut at Beverley, HE'S WALIIM was pitched into the Solario at Sandown in August. There was no disgrace in his performance in that race, as taking on stronger company on slower ground was a stiff test for just his second start. Back on track with a close second to a progressive type over a mile at Kempton most recently, the son of Too Darn Hot could be tough to reel in if he gets a flying start here. Night Patrol and Laazm are less exposed than the rest and are others notable options.
HE'S WALIIM has to give plenty of weight away to the field but is the clear pick. James Tate's colt showed tremendous promise when just touched off in a classy, if tricky to assess, snall field novice last time but even on his debut win back in August is potentaiily thrown-in off an opening mark of 93. He should be tough to beat. Laazm has posted two very solid efforts at Chester and has scope for plnety more. He could give the selection most to do, ahead of Real Man who has gone well in two nursery handicap events and will relish the return to 1m
Ran to form when beaten 2l off a mark of 104 in the Ayr Gold Cup at Ayr last time. Likes to make the running and is effective at 5f or 6f on good and good to firm ground. Yard has won two of the last ten runnings; very solid form.
He has won three times from 5f to 6f on good ground and on the all-weather. Finished 1 3/4l behind Run Boy Run when fifth of 25 at 20-1 on his latest outing at Ayr over 6f (soft) last month. Has won 3 times this season.

A highly creditable sixth in the Ayr Gold Cup last time out after narrowly scoring over C&D in August, NORTHERN TICKER has always been highly regarded by connections and he can strike again. Irish raider Gleneagle Bay may not be the easiest to win with, but dropping to 6f for the first time is interesting, while the consistent Binhareer is entitled to be thereabouts again after a respectable sixth in the Ayr Silver Cup most recently. Third in this last year off 4lb lower and a recent winner at Ripon, Eye Of Dubai completes the shortlist with Hammer The Hammer.
BINHAREER was a fine sixth in the Ayr Silver Cup last time despite a tardy start and if getting it right at the gates this time must have a great chance of landing this. Still probably on an upward curve William Haggas's gelding has actually been eased a pound and a bold bid looks on the cards. Eye Of Dubai was a few lengths ahead of the selection at Ayr (4lb worse off) and has since won at Ripon and he's entitled to be in the shake-up, as is Northern Ticker who was a three length sixth in the Ayr Gold Cup last time and is another who is probably yet to reach the ceiling of his ability

With the form of his promising debut second at Kempton last month being well franked since by the winner and third, JOULANY sets a decent standard and is expected to benefit from the extra furlong. Runner-up despite showing plenty of greenness on debut here over 7f last month, Valenday is bound to improve for that effort, as well as Morshdi, who may enjoy better ground after a creditable effort on soft ground at Sandown.
JOULANY, heavily backed on debut and sent off at odds-on, showed huge promise despite being unable to master a more experienced rival, who went on to win at higher level next time, in a hlaf length defeat. Ralph Beckett's colt looked anice type and will be suited to the slighlty longer trip. Valenday went under the radar on debut but managed a close-up second at 50/1 despite bering very green and should come on a bundle. He can push the selection hard, as should Morshdi, another sent off an odds-on shot on debut, was closing rapidly at the line going down by just over a length at Sandown over 7f. William Haggas's colt shouldn't be underestimated and should be vying for honours

Gibside won this last year but has to carry 7lb more now and arrives out of form, though the return to this class could see him place. Berkshire Sundance was a progressive stayer who finished second in a better race at Kempton last November, but it looks a big ask to win this after 11 months off and MARBUZET gets the nod. A winner at Chester and a short-head second at Ripon last month, he loves a battle and his new mark may not stop him.
Berkshire Sundance has serious form claims but is returning from a long layoff and although he's won when fresh (albeit he unseated and failed to complete on season debut last year but then won next time), he may find DANCE TIME too good. David Loughnane's mare arrives in fine order after a good second at Chester over 1m6f when left too much to do to catch the run away winner. The 2m trip suits better and although the bulk of her best form has been on the AW her peak turf form is just about on a par. Marbuzet, in terrific form and very dependable, looks next best ahead of the hugely progressive Queen Roslyn, seeking a fourth win in five runs. Others of note include Trojan Sun and Molten Sea
Slowly away when beaten a short-head off 80 over 7f at Ascot last time. The trainer is in form. Suited by 9–10f, acts on any ground, and is a consistent, game performer.
He has won four times from 1m to 1m 2f on good and good to soft ground, but last win was over two years ago; has also won a hurdle. Beaten a short head by Rainbow Nebula when second of 17 at 7-1 on his latest outing at Ascot over 7f (good to soft) earlier this month.

Noble Horizon was caught after making the running over C&D in a better race last month but if he is given a more measured ride he could go close racing off 2lb lower. Byblos would be interesting if he keeps a straight path after hanging before finishing fifth over further at Southwell and he is another for the shortlist, as is AUSTRIAN THEORY. Dropped two classes after an Ayr second, he races off the same mark now and looked to be returning to form.
PADISHAKH hasn't progressed as expected after winning on his seaosn debut but has been in decent form and is rarely beaten far. Now from a career low mark of 84, two pounds below his last winning mark, he looks poised for a big run over a trip he's still not fully exposed over. Titian, the only CD winner in the field, holds a good hand and shouldn't be far away, while it's interesting David O'Meara opts to run Rajapour over this trip for the first time. He's been very competitive over a mile of late but lacks a gear and if staying this trip is likely to prove a real threat. The assessor may have caught up with Spioradalta seeking a five-timer, but that's looked the case before in his relentless march up the handicap
