SINGING THE BLUES didn't run up to scratch when last at Newbury earlier this month but the seven-year-old is expected to bounce back to form having won here over 1m6f on his penultimate outing. Tralee Hills (third) and Olympic Honour (fourth) were behind the selection in the aforementioned contest and the pair are likely to run well again, while a wind operation might aid the cause of Ernesto.
Prediction : 1st Singing The Blues 2nd Tralee Hills 3rd Olympic Honour

Frequent Flyer improved from his debut when second over C&D at the start of the month and that performance arguably sets the form standard. That said, he displayed a fair amount of greenness under pressure and, with that in mind, the vote goes to CAPTAIN WIERZBA. He made a promising start to his racing career when runner-up at Windsor in May and Ralph Beckett's colt is entitled to have benefited from that initial outing. The Shadwell pair, Muktamil and Daahes, both command respect, while it would be no surprise to see Victory House step forward from his first outing.
Prediction : 1st Captain Wierzba 2nd Frequent Flyer 3rd Muktamil

LEADING COMPANY completed the hat-trick at Musselburgh when producing his best effort to date and the son of Fast Company may prove to be a tough nut to crack, especially with Harry Davies' 3lb allowance to aid his cause. Wholetthedogsout won over C&D earlier in the month and she is capable of bouncing back from her effort at Brighton on Monday, while others to note are Estehwadh and Ansani.
Prediction : 1st Leading Company 2nd Wholetthedogsout 3rd Estehwadh

The form of the race that Deferred finished fifth in at Kempton on debut could hardly have worked out better and, over this longer trip, Roger Varian's colt should go close, but he might struggle to get the better of TUXEDO JUNCTION. James Fanshawe's charge was turned over at odds-on when last seen at Redcar in June but he's fancied to go one better here after a short break. Eljenob is another fascinating contender and could figure prominently if building on his close second at Windsor back in May.
Prediction : 1st Tuxedo Junction 2nd Deferred 3rd Eljenob

RUM GOING ON has run some excellent races in defeat of late and John Quinn's gelding is fancied to return to the winner's enclosure here with Harry Davies in the saddle for the first time. Atlantic Heart wears first-time blinkers and could go close for her in-form yard, while Agapanther is a lightly-raced contender who can't be discounted with Hollie Doyle back on board.
Prediction : 1st Rum Going On 2nd Atlantic Heart 3rd Agapanther

Gisburn is a quality performer on his day but consistency hasn't been his strong suit in his career so far, so slight preference is for dual C&D winner BERNARDO O'REILLY. Richard Spencer's eight-year-old is 2-2 here and, off just 3lb higher than when victorious at Doncaster in March, he's fancied to return to winning ways. Although he's now 10lb higher, Haymaker must be considered after his wide-margin victory here 16 days ago, and he is another for the shortlist in an open-looking race.
Prediction : 1st Bernardo OReilly 2nd Gisburn 3rd Haymaker

Dual course winner ZAMBEZI MAGIC has been in fine fettle of late, having thumped his rivals on heavy ground earlier this month. The handicapper raised the five-year-old 8lb for that success, but he remains well treated on previous form and may be up to the task. Commander Hector dead-heated for first in a maiden handicap at Ayr on his latest outing and further progression is not out of the question, while A Shining Moon makes his handicap debut and is worth monitoring in the betting market.
Prediction : 1st Zambezi Magic 2nd Commander Hector 3rd A Shining Moon
