11/4
29/1, first run since leaving G. M. Lyons when tailed-off last of 5 to Westover in Grand Prix de Saint-Cloud at Saint-Cloud 48 days ago. Looked promising last year but has a bit to prove based on this season's efforts.

Fairly useful handicapper who has been struggling form this season and has a bit to prove.

Fair form to date, far from discredited when fourth after making the running at Bath last time. Opening mark demands improvement, however.

Taking winner on debut at Kempton in January before following up under a penalty at Lingfield a month later. Hasn't fired on turf so far but was a bit closer to form when ninth at Ascot last time.

7/1
Improved to score at Bath and Hamilton in May/June and returned from a short break with a respectable effort at Leicester 12 days ago. Cheekpieces go on now and it's unlikely that she's reached her peak.

Winner of an 11f Kempton nursery in December and creditable efforts this term prior to a blip in testing conditions at Sandown last time. Expected to bounce back on a sounder surface.

12/1
Shaped nicely amidst greenness at Nottingham on debut and, while he's yet to build on that, he appeals as the sort to up his game now switched to handicaps, so worthy of consideration.

Winner at Nottingham in May but hasn't fired on either outing since. Others make more appeal.

Forecasts

Dashing Panther (9/4), Malabu Drive (11/4), Cavern Club (3/1), French Invasion (5/1), Zain Farhh (13/2), Ajyad (7/1), Shake A Leg (17/2), Break Point (12/1), Longuerue (50/1)

Verdict

DASHING PANTHER has a solid profile and was only denied by a most progressive rival at Ascot last time, so he can get back to winning ways at the likely expense of Ajyad, who probably has more improvement in her. Break Point is another one to consider.
