God Of Fire recorded an all-the-way success at Beverley on Saturday and he merits respect under a penalty, but the vote goes to SHAHEEN SAQAAR. Ed Dunlop's gelding got up in the closing stages over 1m2f at Chelmsford last month. This longer trip could unlock further improvement and a 3lb rise for that victory looks fair. There were signs of promise from Beau French when he made a belated return to action at Goodwood last month, and he could step forward.
Prediction : 1st Shaheen Saqaar 2nd God Of Fire 3rd Beau French

The form of MISS EL FUNDI's debut fourth, which came over C&D, has worked out well in recent weeks. Connections elected to send the Sea The Stars filly to the Chesham last month where she was far from disgraced behind an impressive winner. Eased in both trip and class, she can record a breakthrough success. Stage Effect must shoulder a penalty having won at Haydock in May and she remains of interest, while Cristalino and debutant Savannah Grey are others to note.
Prediction : 1st Miss El Fundi 2nd Stage Effect 3rd Cristalino

RHETORICAL made the perfect start to his career when winning at Newbury in May and, despite finishing second under a penalty at Newmarket last month, there was clear progression. A step up in trip will likely suit William Haggas' colt, who holds an entry in the Great Voltigeur at York. Salisbury scorer Master Builder can give another good account of himself, while Mutaawid might step forward now fitted with first-time blinkers.
Prediction : 1st Rhetorical 2nd Master Builder 3rd Mutaawid

MOEL ARTHUR was unsuited by the way the race developed when finishing a running-on second behind an all-the-way winner over C&D last month and, off an unchanged mark sporting cheekpieces for the first time, a bold bid is anticipated. Banderas has the ability to play a hand in a race of this nature, though inconsistency continues to be the main concern with him. Similar comments apply Clan Chieftain, who performed inexplicably poorly over 2m at Chester latest but might bounce back for the in-form Ralph Beckett yard.
Prediction : 1st Moel Arthur 2nd Banderas 3rd Clan Chieftain

Never Mind Me looks to hold sound claims on the strength of his second off a 1lb lower mark over 7f at Chelmsford on his penultimate start but, after a low key effort most recently, there is a question mark over him and it may pay to side with ATLANTIC GAMBLE. William Knight's charge was the subject of market support when dead-heating at Wolverhampton last month, but he wouldn't have had to share the gold medal if granted a clearer passage on that occasion. Tambourine Dream completes the shortlist on her handicap debut.
Prediction : 1st Atlantic Gamble 2nd Never Mind Me 3rd Tambourine Dream

18:40 Kempton

Salamanca Lad made all over 1m at Leicester last month with enough in hand to suggest he can defy a 3lb rise, but he is 0-4 on the all-weather and preference is for CHERRY HILL. A winner at this venue last September, she was doing her best work at the finish when third over 7f off 1lb higher here last time out and it looks the right time to step her back up to a mile. Twilight Vision and Overture are making their handicap debuts after three qualifying runs and they warrant respect, especially if the market vibes are positive.
Prediction : 1st Cherry Hill 2nd Salamanca Lad 3rd Overture

19:10 Kempton

UZINCSO just ran out of gas late on when a close second off 2lb lower over 1m2f at Lingfield last time and, now returned to a winning C&D, Like Morris' mount has a good chance to go one better. King Of Ithaca and Unsung Hero have slipped to feasible-looking marks and they could have a say at the finish, while Kevin Philippart De Foy won a division of this race in 2022 and his Covert Mission is respected.
Prediction : 1st Uzincso 2nd King Of Ithaca 3rd Unsung Hero

After making all in good style off 1lb lower over this C&D, KYNSA wasn't disgraced when fourth at Newmarket last month and that form has been boosted by the winner scoring again since. Representing an in-form yard which landed a division of this race two years ago, she is fancied to double her track-and-trip win tally, possibly at the main expense of Chindwin. The latter arrives on the back of a victory over the extended 1m at Wolverhampton but that was 91 days ago and he has gone up 3lb since. Completing the shortlist is Classic Speed, who also won here on his penultimate outing.
Prediction : 1st Kynsa 2nd Chindwin 3rd Classic Speed
