QUIET PLACE made a debut full of promise when finishing second, beaten just a short head, at Yarmouth last month and a repeat performance will probably be good enough. The daughter of Kodiac is well drawn in stall three over this trip and should prove too strong for the likes of Bezzas Lad, a good second at Newcastle latest, and Auchterarder, who looks the pick of the newcomers for in-form handler Mark Johnston.
Prediction : 1st Quiet Place 2nd Bezzas Lad 3rd Auchterarder

Those boasting racecourse experience have hardly set the world alight so a chance is taken on SPANISH TIME scoring on debut. Keith Dalgleish can ready one first time up and if he breaks well from a middle draw he'll give himself every chance. Execlusive, drawn slightly wider than the selection, represents a yard boasting a good record with their juveniles this year and joins Kilig on the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Spanish Time 2nd Execlusive 3rd Kilig

Parion makes some appeal on her first try over the minimum trip and in selling company, but she's got a tough draw to overcome. She should show up well, but of more interest is ALICIA DARCY from stall two. Officially rated 4lb inferior than Richard Fahey's inmate, she can be forgiven one lacklustre effort in handicap company at Doncaster last time and is better judged on her decent fourth in novice company at Chelmsford. Scale Force should also finish thereabouts.
Prediction : 1st Alicia Darcy 2nd Parion 3rd Scale Force

FOXTROT KNIGHT has been eased 2lb for finishing third behind subsequent winner Peggie Sue at Pontefract earlier in the month and is expected to show up well from stall five. The main danger may be Afandem, who is dangerously treated on his best form and swaps the cheekpieces worn last time for blinkers. Gamesome has been knocking hard on the door and should remain competitive after being raised 2lb for finishing a head second at Nottingham.
Prediction : 1st Foxtrot Knight 2nd Afandem 3rd Gamesome

KYLIE RULES has won both of her starts for Ruth Carr this this season and may be underestimated by a 5lb rise for the latest of them, which came 19 days ago with Placebo Effect back in second. Storm Ahead picked up some minor money off this mark over C&D last time and is no forlorn hope for a place, likewise Rousayan, who debuts for Roger Fell, and Kharbetation, who is entitled to improve for the fitting of first-time blinkers.
Prediction : 1st Kylie Rules 2nd Kharbetation 3rd Placebo Effect

OSMOSIS was less than two lengths behind the winner when finishing third in a novice event over a mile here late last month. That form was boosted when the winner won again at Haydock on Saturday, which suggests that Jason Ward's filly may be underestimated by a mark of 72. Fenjal was in good form on the all-weather last winter and he could go well on his stable debut, while Beaufort is another to note.
Prediction : 1st Osmosis 2nd Fenjal 3rd Beaufort

LINCOLN TALE put in a career best when finishing third on her handicap debut at Wetherby last month and the progressive filly gets the nod today off just a 2lb higher mark. Jazz Hands is an obvious threat to the selection following his recent success at Musselburgh, while Fantastic Ms Fox and Nordano are the pick of the remaining field.
Prediction : 1st Lincoln Tale 2nd Jazz Hands 3rd Nordano

17:25 Beverley

CASANOVA confirmed the promise that he displayed on debut last year by only finding an 81-rated rival a neck too good on his seasonal return at Epsom last month. The son of Frankel is entitled to improve for that outing and could be hard to beat this afternoon. Pamper bumped into a useful pair when finishing third on her debut at Newmarket last October and she should not be underestimated today. The shortlist is completed by Astrologer, Jabalaly and Moll Davis.
Prediction : 1st Casanova 2nd Pamper 3rd Jabalaly
