MARKET HOUSE showed a likeable attitude when scoring over this track and trip last week and he should be tough to stop with a repeat of that effort, for all that a 5lb penalty requires more. C&D winner Flying Scotsman looks the main danger to the selection although he was fourth behind the selection last time and he has a bit to find. Night Bear looks the pick of the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Market House 2nd Flying Scotsman 3rd Night Bear

LAURA'S BREEZE was doing her best work late on when finishing a staying-on second over 7f here recently and she looks the one to side with over this extra yardage. Danehill Star showed a game attitude when landing the spoils over track and trip on Wednesday and he has to enter the reckoning, while Urban Dandy is another to consider.
Prediction : 1st Lauras Breeze 2nd Danehill Star 3rd Urban Dandy

NEPTUNE LEGEND met trouble in running at a crucial stage when finishing a close-up second over 6f at Wolverhampton last time out and, nudged up 2lb back at 7f, he gets the vote to land the spoils. Course winner Elettaria doubtless has the ability to play a strong hand in a race of this nature and she commands respect off 6lb higher than her last winning mark. Bossy Parker may prove best of the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Neptune Legend 2nd Elettaria 3rd Bossy Parker

EARL OF ROCHESTER was third behind two high-class rivals on his debut in the Wood Ditton at Newmarket last April and is hard to overlook despite the lengthy absence. The son of Dubawi has been gelded in the intervening period and is a notable contender for the Gosdens to be competing with at this time of year. C&D winner Bragbor is feared most under a penalty, although Commanding Prince was a promising second on debut and is another to keep an eye on.
Prediction : 1st Earl Of Rochester 2nd Bragbor 3rd Commanding Prince

Something has clicked with Magna of late and she should be capable of being on the premises again after a couple of second-placed finished at Kempton last month. However, this could be a good time to side with NO RELEASE, who may be revved up by the first-time visor and looks well treated for another try over this trip. Bay Of Dreams is another interesting contender on his handicap debut, while Miakoda is dangerous to underestimate with a hood/tongue-tie combination tried.
Prediction : 1st No Release 2nd Magna 3rd Bay Of Dreams

ASADJUMEIRAH has won here on a couple of occasions already this year and faced a tougher task than this when runner-up at the track just three days ago. He gets the vote to regain the winning thread back at this lower level. Tickets is only 2lb higher than when successful here in January and is another likely to feature in the finish in this grade, while the course regular Beneficiary should run his usual solid race.
Prediction : 1st Asadjumeirah 2nd Tickets 3rd Beneficiary

ROCKLEY POINT won this contest in 2023 and a return to winning ways looks imminent based on his second here four days ago. This looks less competitive and Katie Scott's veteran sprinter is marginally preferred to Kipp Kelly, who posted a better effort when third at Southwell last time and can also have a say in proceedings. Tommytwohoots is capable of making his presence felt, while Shatin Venture is worth a second glance.
Prediction : 1st Rockley Point 2nd Kipp Kelly 3rd Tommytwohoots
