SHARRABANG clocked a big personal best when winning in a tight finish at Carlisle last time out.
It was more the impressive because he was in front a long way from home and the finishing hill is punishing. This extra furlong should be fine and a 3lb rise in the weights gives him every chance. Duhallow Noelie has been running well in stronger races than this in Ireland and saves his best for this distance. He’s a contender, while Juniors Fantasy was a close second at Hamilton and should be on the premises again.

NORTHERN HOPE didn’t enjoy himself on the all-weather at Newcastle last time after showing lots of promise when second on debut at Beverley. A repeat of that first effort would make him hard to beat. Bye Bye Euro showed promise when fifth on her debut at Carlisle latest. She seemed to see out the 7f well there and has more to offer. Magna Moralia looks the pick of the newcomers and any market support would be telling.

GABRIAL THE TIGER has a stunning record over this course and distance with five wins and a place from seven outings. He was in winning form at Chester last time and he’s won off higher marks than this. Mujassam looks the main danger as he’s another who likes it here and ran well at Epsom last time. Putting the blinkers back on could help him get over the line. How Bizarre didn’t have a lot to beat at Beverley latest but he did it nicely and should hold his own again.
3.30
DAZZLING DES is the percentage call in what looks a tight contest. He is making his handicap debut here having not been disgraced in Listed company last time out. He’s proven in this grade and goes over his best distance today. If Exclusively can get to the front from a modest draw she could take some pegging back. She was a solid second at Nottingham last time and is another having her first run at handicap level. Bill Neigh has won both his starts over this course and distance and is capable of giving weight away all round.
4.00
COMPUTABLE has solid claims after a good third at Catterick last time. He isn’t easy to catch right but has winning form over course and distance and can hit the frame again at decent odds. Amazing Alba was right on the premises when third over course and distance last time. This looks a similar race so she should be on the shortlist again. Boudica Bay is proven over C&D and should find this a bit easier than her Epsom race last time where she got no luck in running.
4.30
PERCY PROSECCO has been out of the frame just once in this class and he drops in grade after running over an extended 2m at Doncaster last time. That could make all the difference and he has winning form off this mark. Highway Robber has a solid each-way chance after staying on over 1m4f at Catterick last time. He should be fine stepping up in distance here. Iolani has been in fair form over hurdles and could have a say if showing his best form.
5.00
ALISIA R seemed to have plenty left in the tank when winning over course and distance earlier this month. The opposition that day was of similar quality and she should be right there again. Your Pal Tal can be hit and miss but his best form would bring him into contention in a big way. This trip suits and he has a fair 7lb claimer on board. Angel Eyes likes to go from the front and has gone well over this C&D so could slip away from them all.
