ANN TERRY made a debut full of promise when chasing home a couple of useful colts at Ayr and natural improvement could be enough to see her break through. William Haggas must be feared when he sends one to Thirsk and his Art Design has shown more than enough to warrant an interest. Li Ban has experience on her side, while Neytiri Te Tskaha didn't get the rub of the green at Beverley and is capable of much better.
Prediction : 1st Ann Terry 2nd Art Design 3rd Neytiri Te Tskaha

There would be no more deserving winner than Genesius, but he may have to settle for yet another supporting role because ROGUE TORNADO was beaten just half a length into third when attempting to supplement a Leicester triumph at Doncaster and is open to plenty more improvement. There was a bit more to like about Bustaam's Carlisle third last week and he rounds out the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Rogue Tornado 2nd Genesius 3rd Bustaam

GLORY HYDE proved her 20/1 C&D victory was no fluke when sharing second at Pontefract and she appears capable of taking another step forward off the same mark. Ingleby Archie has been raised 3lb for his breakthrough success at Redcar, but must still be feared. Scoops Ahoy and Keldeo shouldn't be too far away, nor should Stash The Cash provided he settles a bit better.
Prediction : 1st Glory Hyde 2nd Ingleby Archie 3rd Scoops Ahoy

GERMANIC left a mediocre debut effort behind him when beating a previous winner by 11 lengths over 7f at Newcastle last month, and the son of Saxon Warrior should be very tough to stop with a reproduction of that. Fellow last-time-out winner Bobby Bennu also created a favourable impression at Chester and he can give the selection most to think about. Ten Pounds is also noteworthy.
Prediction : 1st Germanic 2nd Bobby Bennu 3rd Ten Pounds

Vince Le Prince took advantage of a tumbling mark to score gamely over 7f at Leicester earlier this month, and he must enter calculations in a race of this nature. Preference is for ANIMATE. He wasn't unsupported in the market when bouncing back to form over 6f at Catterick last month and a 2lb rise may prove lenient given that plenty went wrong for him in the run. Abruzzo Mia and Challet are a couple of others to consider.
Prediction : 1st Animate 2nd Vince Le Prince 3rd Challet

16:22 Thirsk

DAZY MAZY arrives here having won two of her last three starts, finishing a neck second on the other occasion, and a 2lb rise for the most recent of those victories may not be enough to stop the in-form filly. That said, Lord Abama has also been in good form of late and should not be discounted, while Fortamour and Music Society complete the shortlist.
Prediction : 1st Dazy Mazy 2nd Lord Abama 3rd Fortamour

16:55 Thirsk

It is very hard to oppose YAZAMAN, who has racked up a hat-trick in recent months and further 5lb rise may still vastly underestimate the six-year-old. Saaheq has not been disgraced on his last couple of starts and the veteran should not be discounted in this company. The unexposed Equity's Darling edges out Havagomecca and Mereside Angel to be best of the rest.
Prediction : 1st Yazaman 2nd Saaheq 3rd Equitys Darling
