16/1
Casamento colt who cost £16,000 as a yearling. Showed promise with debut third at Hamilton (5f, good to soft) in May though much less promising at Thirsk over 6f in June. AW bow off a break and could have something to offer.

Slade Power colt, beaten close to 12L over C&D on debut last month and since failed to beat a rival home over 5f on soft ground at Beverley. Big step up needed.

Irish raider, hasn't come close than 3¼L second in C&D novice in August in his six-race career to date. More exposed than a few of these but could relish being back here.

Forecasts

Be Ahead (11/10), Lilkian (4/1), On Tick (6/1), Rushcutters Bay (9/1), Dynamighty (11/1), Castlehill Retreat (16/1), Dark Phoenix (25/1), Love Not Money (50/1), Knock Knock (100/1), Tattletime (100/1)

Verdict

French import BE AHEAD boasts the best form from her three starts and could make a wining debut in this country for a trainer in good form at the moment. On Tick has run well at this venue before and could do so again while newcomers Dark Phoenix and Tattletime are worth a betting check in what isn't a deep race.
