Navajo Spring failed to build on her second to leading juvenile Dandalla at Newcastle when racing too freely over C&D last time. Michael Dods' filly could very easily bounce back to what she achieved on debut, but a chance is taken with OLIVIA BREND. She was thrown in at the deep end on her first start, when fourth in Listed company at Newmarket, and the drop to this level can see her be very competitive. Newcomer Bamby Splishsplash and Ripon fourth Maeve's Memory appear best of the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Olivia Brend 2nd Navajo Spring 3rd Bamby Splishsplash

THE GREY BAY has acquitted himself well on both his starts this season, following up a placed effort over C&D with a second at Thirsk over 6f, and Julie Camacho's gelding has an ideal draw to strike from stall three. Pivotal Art's best run so far came when fourth at the track on his second start and he can enter calculations with cheekpieces applied, while others to consider include Tiltilys Rock and Speedymining.
Prediction : 1st The Grey Bay 2nd Pivotal Art 3rd Tiltilys Rock

SINGLE has stepped forward with each start this season and arrives on the back of a career best when finishing second to a progressive type of Sir Mark Prescott's at Doncaster. The step up to 2m, along with wearing cheekpieces for the first time, may yield further improvement from the daughter of Nathaniel and she appears to have been found a decent opportunity to get off the mark. Cheshire also sports cheekpieces having run poorly at Catterick on her most recent outing, while a pair of blinkers make Frankenstella of interest after her fourth at Wolverhampton earlier in the month.
Prediction : 1st Single 2nd Cheshire 3rd Frankenstella

13:40 Beverley

ANYONECANHAVEITALL failed to fire when favourite at Newcastle last weekend but he can be given another chance this afternoon, having hit the crossbar when last tried in class 4 company. Dance To Paris has been running well enough in defeat of late to suggest that she can make the frame, while Lady Scatterley and Stonific are the pick of the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Anyonecanhaveitall 2nd Dance To Paris 3rd Lady Scatterley

14:10 Beverley

How Bizarre won narrowly at Musselburgh a week ago and he has to be of some interest this afternoon, although the 5lb penalty he carries has to be a concern. With that in mind, the vote goes to DAWN BREAKING, who also won on his most recent outing and a 3lb rise for that victory appears to be fair. Others to note are Kentuckyconnection and Serenading.
Prediction : 1st Dawn Breaking 2nd How Bizarre 3rd Kentuckyconnection

14:40 Beverley

BREANSKI was only denied by a neck in a stronger race than this at Newmarket a week ago and, off the same mark, the six-year-old has to be given the utmost respect today. Magical Effect is an obvious threat to the selection following his victory at Thirsk a couple of weeks ago, while Saisons D'Or and Queen's Sargent complete the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Breanski 2nd Magical Effect 3rd Saisons DOr

15:10 Beverley

BLONDE WARRIOR was rated 94 in his pomp when trained by Hugo Palmer and it is hard to believe that he can't be competitive off a rating of 83 for David O'Meara. The four-year-old wasn't given a hard time of things when beaten at Yarmouth last month and should be wiser this time. Rousayan was fourth in a better race at Hamilton two weeks ago and handles varying ground conditions, while Rux Ruxx is fancied to build on his recent Musselburgh fourth.
Prediction : 1st Blonde Warrior 2nd Rousayan 3rd Rux Ruxx

15:40 Beverley

IDEAL CANDY ran a huge race here on reappearance last month, when only finding a course specialist too good, and could make amends despite a 3lb rise. The five-year-old remains on a fair mark and unexposed over 10 furlongs, so it wouldn't be a surprise to see a big performance. Railport Dolly was second at Doncaster three weeks ago but hasn't been done many favours by the draw, while Zihaam, who accounted for the selection last time, is also noted but hasn't won off a mark this high before.
Prediction : 1st Ideal Candy 2nd Railport Dolly 3rd Zihaam

16:10 Beverley

Swan River has shown mild promise in three starts for Roger Varian and might have been let in lightly off an opening handicap mark of 63 now trying this distance for the first time, but she will probably be well found in the market, and it could be worth chancing recent Lingfield scorer UNION SPIRIT. The three-year-old relished that first try at 10 furlongs, dominating the field in style, and could take some passing if taking to this track. Trinity Girl could be staying on for some prize money.
Prediction : 1st Union Spirit 2nd Swan River 3rd Trinity Girl
