Modern Times looks interesting on his debut for Tim Easterby and, although he hasn't been seen since January, he wasn't beaten far at Newcastle off this mark and has to enter calculations. Dashing Darcey ran well in second off 1lb lower at Haydock and is noted, but HAVANA PUSEY is preferred. Trying this trip for the first time at Goodwood, she came home two and a quarter lengths clear of the second and there is every chance she has more to come over this distance.
PALMAR BAY arrives in top order having landed a class 3 event at Chelmsford last time and looks best placed to land the spoils in a typically tight affair. That latest effort was a career peak effort and on only his 14th start he may have a little left untapped potential and can add a fifth career win to the CV. The trip is ideal and he's proven very versatile surface-wise, winning on all types. He has solid claims. The list of dangers is long. The consistent Little Empire is interesting and is top of the list having got back to winning ways last time and appears to be improving still. He's raised in grade (he won a class 5 handicap latest) but should cope and go close again. Humam is another who could go very well dropped back to 7f having failed to get home over the mile last time. Fast ground is a bit of a concern but he's only faced it once and wasn't far below par. Any easing of the ground would help his cause but he could still spring a bit of a surprise and lay down a bold challenge if it stays dry
Raced freely down the field in a handicap over 1m6f at Musselburgh most recent off a layoff; visor first time; down in trip a plus; off a short-break; should build on latest, in the mix
He has won three times from 1m 2f to 1m 4f on good to firm and soft ground, but last win was over two years ago. Beaten 13l behind Kihavah at 7-1 when 10th of 14 on his latest outing at Musselburgh over 1m 6f (good to soft) in April.

Born Ruler seems likely to prove popular for Sir Mark Prescott after his Redcar fourth, but he is yet to win beyond 10 furlongs. Saligo Bay stayed on well to win over this distance at Haydock last month and he can go well off 4lb higher, but a chance is taken on SARATOGA GOLD. Third off his current rating over course and distance latest when running on again late in the race, Lauren Frost claims 5lb aboard the seven-year-old and he looks all set for a big run.
Heathen is very interesting back on turf off a mark of 73 compared to 86 on the all-weather and deserves to be high on the list of contenders. However, his six turf runs have been pretty modest and the drop back to this trip may not play to his strenghts so it may pay to look elsewhere. SALIGO BAY could be the one. Seeking a hat-trick having won on the turf and all-weather recently he'll have to improve a bit off a further rise in better company but he's rated a fair bit higher on the Flat in the past and it's worth chancing he's still got more to come now rediscovering his form. Born Ruler, a tad disappointing last time, can get back on track here and go close. He's versatile on different ground and the trip looks fine from the limited evidence of three runs at it or beyond. One at likely more rewarding odds to consider is Glistening Nights. He's back down to his last winning mark (five runs back) and wasn't beaten far last time despite finishing 6th of 7. It can take a few runs for him to hit peak fitness and a big run could be on the cards. He looks to have a decent each way shout in a trappy affair

Absurde kept on well when third to Illinois and Al Qareem over a furlong shorter in the Group 3 Ormonde Stakes at Chester last month and, given he meets the runner-up on better terms, he must have a good chance. ALSAKIB is already a C&D winner after beating Al Qareem here in July last year and, if he improves for his reappearance following a gelding operation when fourth in the Yorkshire Cup, then this race is comfortably within range. El Cordobes is respected too.
There was very little between Absurde and Al Qareem at Chester last time and it should be tight again with Absurde 2lb better off here for half a length beating. Both have winning form over the course and should go close but ALSAKIB could just have their measure. Andrew Balding's charge posted a career best last time and is still progressing, albeit gradually, and this course and distance winner, who has won on all types of going so should handle conditions come rain or shine, will appreciate the slight ease in grade and can land a narrow victory, ahead of Absurde and Al Qareem.

DOUBLE RUSH is a sprinter on the upgrade and looks worth sticking with. The son of Blue Point won a competitive contest at Newmarket on his handicap debut and a 5lb rise looks fair given both the third and fourth have subsequently won. Marchogion also scored at Newmarket when beating American Style with a bit up his sleeve. He can confirm that form, while Clive Cox has won two of the last three renewals so Doncaster novice winner Fast Track Harry also enters calculations.
An incredibly trappy affair where few can be discounted and many are still progressing. The one to take the eye is DILIGENTLY who won a valuable sales race over course and distance on final start last term (good to firm) and kicked off this campaign with a fine second in a class 3 handicap. Although beaten 4l then the winner is a hugely progressive sort who was landing a hat-trick. He should come on for that initial run of the campaign and should go well. Maelstrom and Marchogion also arrive in top form and are very much on an upward curve and can both play a big part. Both are proven in handicaps, Maelstrom on a four-timer having won all three handicap runs and Marchogion winning on turf handicap debut last time improving a bit on his AW form. Marchogion is just preferred given he's proven in this grade. Loom is interesting at a price in a first time hood and could out-run his odds

STELLAR SUNRISE missed the break at Goodwood on his introduction, but showed plenty of pace to make up the lost ground and finish a creditable second. The son of Space Blues will be a lot wiser today and this flat 6f will suit Andrew Balding's charge. Lyrical Song would likely have finished closer than fifth at Pontefract with a clear run and he could be in the mix, while the newcomers Tactical Formation and Yy Nation should be noted for any significant support.
STELLAR SUNRISE can exploit an experience edge to hold off the challenge of some interesting newcomers. Andrew Balding's colt did well on debut given a tardy start and sets a decent standard even before a likely step forward with that invaluable race experience behind him. Hopefully he can be more alert from the gates and should prove tough to beat. Egoli and Lyrical Song can improve on their debut efforts but will need to step up markedly to challenge the selection and a couple of the newcomers may fill the frame behind the selection. Yy Nation is top of the list of debutants. A valuable purchase from the breeze-up sales and hailing from a yard in terrific form with their 2yo's this term (34% strike rate on turf, and two from three on the AW) he should go well. Tactical Formation, an even more costly purchase at the breze-up sales, looks another likely sort and is next on the list

CLASSIC ENCOUNTER has finished placed in two strong Newmarket handicaps since he made a winning seasonal debut at Redcar in April and is a tough customer to deal with when he gets his ground. Handily drawn and with the likelihood of suitable underfoot conditions, the George Boughey-trained four-year-old is an attractive proposition. Obelix, the hat-trick seeking Garden Oasis and Capital Guarantee also hold solid credentials, while Pisanello is another must for the shortlist having won this corresponding race off 7lb higher 12 months ago.
GARDEN OASIS is too tempting to resist on a hat-trick bid having rediscovered former levels of late (has won off a mark of 85 but back in 2021). He showed he can deleiver the goods elsewhere than his beloved Ripon when scoring at Ayr last time and while his record here is less than inspiring he has won here and just gets the nod. Classic Encounter is fancied to bounce back after a disappointing effort in a small field at Newmarket where he never looked comfortable and should be much better suited by this bigger field. He can go close along with Crack Shot who hasn't quite found his best yet this term but isn't far off and this represents a slightly easier task
Raced freely beaten 4l off 86 at Newbury last time; unproven on fast ground; drawn on wing of large field; off a short-break; suspect on turf and needs step forward
He has won three times from 6f to 7f on the all-weather. Beaten 4l behind Havanagreattime at 5-1 when seventh of 11 on his latest outing at Newbury over 6f (good) in April.

Richard Fahey has two strong contenders in the form of MUSICAL TOUCH and Ziggy's Condor. With Oisin Orr booked for the latter, it's safe to assume the son of Havana Grey might be the stable's main hope. However, Cian Horgan is young rider that is well worth his 5lb claim and Musical Touch can benefit from that handy asset from the saddle. The hat-trick seeking Ingleby Archie is another serious player, with his berth in stall 22 a persuasive factor. Spirit Of Applause and Jonny Concrete are notable each-way options.
A fiendishly trappy affair. The trio to take the eye are headed by JONNY CONCRETE, continuing the fine progress made last term with a win on season debut (over 7f) followed by an improved effort in defeat last time back over 6f. A strongly run 6f here looks ideal and another bold bid is expected. Northern Spirit, a winner over course and distance is in good nick (kicked off the season with a win at Beverley over 5f and went well back at 6f despite missing the kick last time at Southwell). He's on a career high mark but his CD win came off just 5lb lower and the ease back to class 4 will help. Imperial Guard is interesting in first time cheekpieces and this consistent type is fancied to go close. He went well over course and distance last June in a class 2 event (5th of 17) and has the added bonus of being pretty versatile on the ground (yet to face anything easiser than Good to soft) and won't mind if the ground eases a bit. Aberama Gold, Mister Sox, Sacred Falls and Equiano Springs are others to give serious consideration to
