SMART CHARGER was a strong fancy on his seasonal return/debut run for Alan King at Southwell last month and ran admirably to finish a close second over 1m4f that day. A try over this longer trip now appears a logical move and the four-year-old can reward any faithful supporters by going one place better. Vision Of Hope has won on the all-weather off his current mark and also appeals after a near miss here last time. Philos and Kindgirl complete the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Smart Charger 2nd Vision Of Hope 3rd Philos

EXPERT WITNESS posted a sterling effort when runner-up in a similar race at Bath on his seasonal bow last month and this could be the ideal time to catch the Sir Mark Todd-trained four-year-old, who runs off a highly competitive mark. Recent course and distance winner Aim For The Moon is feared most, despite a 6lb higher rating. Ciotog and Taravara can also go close on these terms.
Prediction : 1st Expert Witness 2nd Aim For The Moon 3rd Ciotog

The William Haggas-trained ART DESIGN, whose dam is a full-sister to dual Guineas heroine Winter, is the most appealing newcomer on paper and is suggested as the first one to note in the betting. Spherical runs for powerful connections and also warrants close inspection, while Blue Point Express, as a half-sister to a 6f winner, is another to bear in mind. Jane Chapple-Hyam sent out the winner of this race last year and her representative, Impatiently, commands respect.
Prediction : 1st Art Design 2nd Spherical 3rd Blue Point Express

625,000-euro purchase AGE OF GOLD represents a trainer very much on the hot list, and it would come as no surprise if the son of Frankel were able to get off the mark at the first time of asking. Cairdeas holds entries in some valuable sales contests later in the season and the son of impressive first-season-sire Sergei Prokofiev can give the selection most to think about. Saxonia may be advantaged due to being the only member of the field to have racecourse experience.
Prediction : 1st Age Of Gold 2nd Cairdeas 3rd Saxonia

Formerly with Sir Michael Stoute, FALCON NINE may prove a shrewd acquisition for the Charlie Fellowes' stable. The son of Ulysses appeared to not get home when finishing fourth over 1m2f on his last couple of starts, but stepping back in trip and sporting a hood for the first time are both positives for his claims here. Sir Oliver arrives on the back of an admirable third at Chelmsford earlier this month and, off an 8lb lower turf mark, a bold showing is anticipated. Red Maids met trouble in running at Haydock most recently and better is expected here, especially with William Buick reunited with her.
Prediction : 1st Falcon Nine 2nd Sir Oliver 3rd Red Maids

OH SO AUDACIOUS reappeared when third over a mile at Brighton last month and Harry Eustace's charge is likely to take a step forward from that display. Specialist View was sent off favourite when finishing sixth over an extended mile at Wolverhampton earlier this month, but she is the type to bounce back and cannot be overlooked lightly, while the habitually keen-going Seattle Time completes the shortlist wearing a hood for the first time.
Prediction : 1st Oh So Audacious 2nd Specialist View 3rd Seattle Time
