ALI SHUFFLE won a shade cosily on her Redcar debut earlier in the month and she may prove good enough to give 5lb or more to her rivals to come home in front. Raphael Freire won with his first juvenile of the season and has a serious challenger in the shape of Stardinia, a Starman filly making her debut, but she has a high draw which is not deemed an advantage, while Kevin Ryan had a two-year-old winner at Musselburgh on Sunday and is represented by Kilfrush Desert, who is another to consider.
Prediction : 1st Ali Shuffle 2nd Stardinia 3rd Kilfrush Desert

Four-year-olds have a good record in this race and it will be interesting to see where EQUITY LAW sits in the market ahead of his first start for Tim Easterby, with his latest win at Sandown in April last year in a better race, and off a 5lb higher mark. King Of Tonga has won on his return before and was last seen scoring at Chester in July, but he may have to settle for a place on this occasion, while Elegant Erin loves it here with three wins from five starts.
Prediction : 1st Equity Law 2nd King Of Tonga 3rd Elegant Erin

Hiya Maite is entitled to go close and will look to put his race fitness to good use after a neck second at Southwell last month. He still needs a career best off this mark, and preference is for the younger ANGEL SHARED, whose wins on turf have come on a variety of surfaces. She could step forward this season, with Albegone and Havana Rum also of interest from the bottom of the handicap.
Prediction : 1st Angel Shared 2nd Hiya Maite 3rd Albegone

AL KHAWSSAA ended her three-year-old campaign with a cosy triumph at Southwell and she looks one to keep the right side of on her return to action. Roger Varian has his string in fine fettle and the Night Of Thunder filly looks capable of following up. The biggest threat may emerge from Adoon Valley, who is a live threat judged on her debut second at Newmarket. Arkinthestars and Wilhelmina are also worth a second look.
Prediction : 1st Al Khawssaa 2nd Adoon Valley 3rd Arkinthestars

Although thwarted in his follow-up bid at Chelmsford 20 days ago, LIGHTENING MANN lost little in defeat in finishing second. A 2lb nudge up in the ratings looks workable for Jack Channon's gelding and he's fancied to regain the winning thread. Sir Peter Fossick may have found the ground too soft on his third-placed defeat at Chester in September last year and he isn't taken lightly on the back of a gelding procedure. Edge Ofthe Unknown is the pick of the remainder.
Prediction : 1st Lightening Mann 2nd Sir Peter Fossick 3rd Edge Ofthe Unknown

FREDDY ROBINSON returned to form with a staying-on third over 1m2f at Doncaster last time out. The son of Adaay should relish today's extra two furlongs and compensation could be on the cards. Prince Achille ended his last campaign with a fair sixth at Newcastle and a 134-day break may freshen him up. The six-year-old is feared most reverting to turf, ahead of Marioento.
Prediction : 1st Freddy Robinson 2nd Prince Achille 3rd Marioento

17:07 Beverley

A gelding operation seemed to work wonders for BELTADAAY when scoring easily at Leicester last October. A 10lb rise for that success could prove manageable, despite totally different conditions on his return. The son of Adaay is narrowly preferred to the consistent Law Degree and Sovereign Class, who bounced back to form with a strong runner-up effort over further at Musselburgh most recently. Berkshire Smudge and Seed Investor are capable of being in the shake-up as well.
Prediction : 1st Beltadaay 2nd Law Degree 3rd Sovereign Class

The Edward Bethell stable can do little wrong at present and CROWN'S LADY could be a shrewd recruit to the yard, having won three times last year. Going back up in trip looks like a good move for the four-year-old, and it may be that Astronomica gives her the most to think about, having ended last season with highly creditable efforts at Leicester and Newmarket. Catton Lady and Electric Avenue cannot be ruled out either.
Prediction : 1st Crowns Lady 2nd Astronomica 3rd Electric Avenue
