DYNAMIC TALENT's stamina appeared stretched by a mile at Chelmsford last month and he may be worth chancing now dropped in trip. Society Lion could have been feeling the exertions of his triumph at Thirsk when finishing down the field seven days later at Leicester in April and a return to form looks a distinct possibility. Sir Rodneyredblood is best known for his exploits on the all-weather, but he also enters the reckoning now operating off a significantly lower mark in this sphere, despite being 5lb out of the handicap.
Prediction : 1st Dynamic Talent 2nd Society Lion 3rd Sir Rodneyredblood

There was plenty of encouragement to be gleaned from HIDDEN STORY's debut second at Nottingham last month and he may have enough improvement in him to land this contest. Syllabus is another who should have learned a lot from his initial bid when finishing fourth over a mile at this venue in April, with a better showing possible now stepped up in distance. The returning Davideo could also have more to offer this season and completes the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Hidden Story 2nd Syllabus 3rd Davideo

DUAL IDENTITY was a progressive type last season and didn't run too badly when seventh on his comeback here earlier in the month. William Knight's gelding enjoys a 2lb drop in the handicap for that effort and he's now only 2lb higher than his cracking third in last year's Cambridgeshire. He should take some stopping, with Misty Dancer feared most now returned to handicap company, ahead of the in-form duo of Simply Sondheim and Qaasid.
Prediction : 1st Dual Identity 2nd Misty Dancer 3rd Simply Sondheim

Andrew Balding has won this race twice in the past three years and looks to have another lively chance with AUSTRALIAN ANGEL. She was a respectable fourth on her seasonal reappearance at Ripon on ground softer than ideal and now back up in trip she makes most appeal. Adjuvant was narrowly denied over C&D at the Guineas meeting here earlier this month and must have claims off the same mark, while Saratoga Gold is likely to be thereabouts having won on his first start last year.
Prediction : 1st Australian Angel 2nd Adjuvant 3rd Saratoga Gold

Although QUDDWAH has to concede weight all round having won at Salisbury on debut, he did plenty wrong on that occasion which suggests there could be an awful lot more to come from the son of Kingman. Laoisman shaped with plenty of promise when going down narrowly at Pontefract on his debut outing recently and is sure to have benefited from that experience. The same applies to Merlin The Wizard, who went down to a more experienced rival at Kempton in December and this extra yardage looks sure to suit.
Prediction : 1st Quddwah 2nd Laoisman 3rd Merlin The Wizard

REPERTOIRE was far from disgraced in an apprentice handicap on his reappearance at Ascot 16 days ago. The son of Bated Breath is back down to his last winning mark and, with Jamie Spencer back aboard, an improved performance could be on the cards. He shades the vote over the steadily progressive Hiromichi, while Shigar appeals as the pick of the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Repertoire 2nd Hiromichi 3rd Shigar

Raised 3lb in the ratings having been narrowly denied on her handicap debut last month, compensation may await the George Boughey-trained ABBADIA with natural progression on the cards. Ed Dunlop enlists the services of James Doyle aboard Raven's Applause, and that means the son of Acclamation should be treated with the utmost respect. Others to note include Oriental Dancer and Wadi Bani.
Prediction : 1st Abbadia 2nd Ravens Applause 3rd Oriental Dancer
