Having lost little in defeat when finishing a close-up second in a class 2 event at York recently, this looks a suitable opportunity for BLEEP TEST to outrun her rivals. Tim Easterby's filly sets a good standard dropping in class and her experience could prove crucial. 300,000-pound newcomer Enchant must be monitored in the betting, along with American Flight, a half-sister to the Group-placed Les Bleus.
Prediction : 1st Bleep Test 2nd Enchant 3rd American Flight

Twilight Guest supplemented his breakthrough victory at Brighton last month when following up over the same C&D six days later. George Margarson's gelding warrants respect in his hat-trick bid, but could be worth taking on off a 7lb higher mark. Hawa Jumeirah arrives on the back of a triumph at Leicester, but preference is for ROMAN SECRET, who is taken to improve on her fourth-placed seasonal/stable bow at Nottingham earlier this month.
Prediction : 1st Roman Secret 2nd Hawa Jumeirah 3rd Twilight Guest

Sol Cayo continued his progression for current connections when landing the spoils at Southwell 149 days ago and he must enter calculations. However, he does have something to prove on turf, so LIEBER POWER could be the one. The son of Cracksman arrives on the back of a respectable fourth in a class 2 event at Haydock and a similar performance may prove sufficient. Expert Witness is also noted.
Prediction : 1st Lieber Power 2nd Sol Cayo 3rd Expert Witness

KARMOLOGY has been the bridesmaid on three previous occasions in Listed races but is a game mare who could step up here. The Karl Burke-trained five-year-old is set to encounter ideal ground conditions and, still unexposed over the trip, there is plenty to like about her. Ralph Beckett has a good record in this and plays another strong hand, with the less-exposed Meribella shading preference over Allonsy as the main danger. Santorini Star could go well too.
Prediction : 1st Karmology 2nd Meribella 3rd Allonsy

SURREY FIRE is open to progression and given that his dam won the Cesarewitch during her career, there are very good reasons to expect the Hughie Morrison-trained four-year-old will have the stamina reserves to have a big impact. This is no easy task and the likes of Almudena and Diamand De Vindecy, a C&D winner in April, will keep the selection honest. Captain Potter could also be a surprise package in an open race.
Prediction : 1st Surrey Fire 2nd Almudena 3rd Diamand De Vindecy

Partisan Hero has done all his winning over further, including on Oaks day at Epsom latest, but this previous course winner still needs to be respected. The vote, however, goes to RARE CHANGE. On target at Windsor and York before enduring a troubled passage at Goodwood last time, the three-year-old could bounce back. Northern Spirit is drawn well in stall one and should not be overlooked.
Prediction : 1st Rare Change 2nd Partisan Hero 3rd Northern Spirit

Adorla Of Achill made all to score at Haydock last month and is respected off 5lb higher, but preference is for STYLE OF LIFE. Back on the grass for her seasonal return at Chester recently, the daughter of New Bay recorded a commanding success. 6lb higher but already proven at this venue, she appears to hold outstanding claims. Volenti is another who must enter calculations.
Prediction : 1st Style Of Life 2nd Adorla Of Achill 3rd Volenti
