A comfortable winner over C&D last month, TOUGH ENOUGH remains unexposed and is fancied to follow up despite a 4lb rise for the aforementioned success. The son of Showcasing has scored in two of his three handicap starts and he can get the better of Amber Island, who seemed to benefit from the application of cheekpieces when scoring off a 4lb lower mark at Leicester in June. Youarenotforgiven also warrants a second look.
Prediction : 1st Tough Enough 2nd Amber Island 3rd Youarenotforgiven

14:25 Sandown

Last year's winner Potapova arrives here following a creditable effort in the Duke Of Cambridge at Royal Ascot in June and Sir Michael Stoute's mare would be dangerous to dismiss, especially with Ryan Moore in the saddle. However, HEREDIA secured a facile win in Listed company at Haydock last month and can get the better of this field up in grade. The unexposed Queen For You sports first-time cheekpieces and could improve with that in mind, while the grade-dropping Coppice is just one other with claims.
Prediction : 1st Heredia 2nd Potapova 3rd Queen For You

An open contest in which a chance can be taken with DASHING ROGER, who reverts to handicapping after being well beaten in the Summer Mile at Ascot in July. He retains the mark from a decent third over an extended 1m2f at Chester on his penultimate run and gets the vote at the main expense of Stay Well, who can take advantage of a drop in trip following a fair fourth over an extended 1m3f last month. Eagle's Way was a beaten favourite in the Chesterfield Cup at Goodwood most recently but could bounce back.
Prediction : 1st Dashing Roger 2nd Stay Well 3rd Eagles Way

15:38 Sandown

The well-bred STARLORE made the perfect start to his career when scoring over C&D a couple of months ago. Sir Michael Stoute's charge scored by a nose on that occasion but he's likely to be wiser for that experience and he can take another step forward here. Mortlake is feared most after a comfortable five-lengths success over 7f at Leicester, while the Newmarket winner Aablan could be an exciting two-year-old for Godolphin.
Prediction : 1st Starlore 2nd Mortlake 3rd Aablan

16:10 Sandown

CLASSICAL SONG made a very pleasing start to her career when second over 7f at Goodwood a month ago and this looks like a good opportunity to go one better. That form was franked when the winner was second in a Group 2 at Deauville subsequently and Ralph Beckett's filly is hard to oppose. Beautiful Love also commands respect for Charlie Appleby after a promising third on debut over 7f at Newmarket, while Skywoman is an interesting debutant.
Prediction : 1st Classical Song 2nd Beautiful Love 3rd Skywoman

16:45 Sandown

INNER CITY has a long way to go to justify his 1,100,000gns price tag but the son of Dubawi has shown promise in novice/maiden company and a recent gelding operation could help him to get off the mark here. Savvy Kingdom won a modest-looking novice event at Kempton last time but he commands respect, while Paladin and Spanish Blaze complete the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Inner City 2nd Savvy Kingdom 3rd Paladin

17:20 Sandown

Mojomaker has been running well enough since returning from a break and, off 1lb lower than last week's respectable second at Hamilton, he holds solid claims once again. Similar comments apply to Swift Asset, whose recent efforts offer plenty of encouragement. However, there was only half a length between him and CLIPSHAM LA HABANA (second) when he won at Bath in July and, off 4lb better terms, the latter is fancied to turn the form around.
Prediction : 1st Clipsham La Habana 2nd Swift Asset 3rd Mojomaker
