Failed to get competitive at Meydan at the start of this year but ran a solid race back in Britain when third over 1m at Ascot 6 weeks ago. Cheekpieces refitted. Stable in form.

Night Narcissus⁹⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-11| J: Liam Keniry| T: C G Cox| OR: 89| D

14/1

Arrives in search of a hat-trick after wins over 6f and 7f at Wolverhampton earlier in the year. All wins on AW but has plenty of good form on turf and player if returning from a 3-month break in similar form.

Form: 225-611

Divine Magic²⁶

9/2

Pair of 7f turf wins last summer. 16/1, good third of 11 in handicap at York (7f, good) on reappearance 26 days ago. Won't need to step up much on that to play a prominent role.

Nizaaka¹⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 8-11| J: Benoit D L Sayette⁽⁵⁾| T: Jane Chapple-Hyam| OR: 75| BF| D

11/8

AW novice winner for Roger Varian last November. Good start for new yard when close second of 10 in handicap at Newbury (7f, good to soft) 17 days ago. Nudged up 3 lb but that is more than offset by Benoit de la Sayette's claim. The one to beat.

Form: 34321-2

Rock Melody⁴⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-8| J: M Barzalona| T: K P De Foy| OR: 81| BF| D

5/1

Maiden/novice winner at 2. Respectable third in 7f Salisbury handicap on reappearance but Benoit de la Sayette, who was on board on that occasion, sides with Nizaaka this time.

Form: 10241-3

Forecasts

Nizaaka (11/8), Stunning Beauty (3/1), Divine Magic (9/2), Rock Melody (5/1), Night Narcissus (14/1)

With Benoit de la Sayette taking 5 lb off NIZAAKA has to be considered the one to beat on the back of her promising first run for new trainer Jane Chapple-Hyam at Newbury. Divine Magic chased home a couple of progressive 3-y-os on her reappearance and may provide the chief threat ahead of hat-trick seeking Night Narcissus in what is a competitive handicap despite the small field.
