( INVITATION CUP WEEKEND)

1.30 #7 SHERWIN went in to many note books after his promising second on debut at Bangalore. Third placed NISUS has since franked that form when winning twice including a grade 3 contest. Based on that evidence this three-year-old could take plenty of beating especially over this extended 7f trip. 

2.00 #7 VALEGRO looks the one to side with despite disappointing on his latest outing and with 4.5kg less to carry he can prove too strong for these if returning to forcing tactics. 

2.30 Sparingly raced #16 ASGARDIA won in comfortable fashion to break his maiden last start and is well worth another try at this level. #14 NOTTING HILL head the shortlist of dangers to the selection.

3.00 #13 HIGH PRIESTESS who would have finished much closer last time but for being badly hampered, will appreciate the step up in trip and deserves another chance off this lenient mark. 

3.30 The progressive #14 LION is faultless winning three out of three career starts and should be followed until beaten. 

4.00 Hard to see anything beating the favourite. #8 MULTIFACETED winner of three in a row and yet to lose over 6f, looks a sure thing.

4.30 Last year’s winner of this race #7 SACRED ROMAN should not find any difficulty to defend this title. 

5.00 #5 DONNA BELLA has not won in some time but has been holding form and can go close to winning on this with Suraj Narredu retaining the ride. 

DAYS BEST : MULTIFACETED 

GOOD LUCK

2.30 Sparingly raced #4 JUDY BLUE EYES returned from a long absence to score in handsome style over C&D and, on that evidence, could prove difficult to beat.

3.00 #3 WALK THE TALK amongst the placegetters heels last start running fourth and gets the CNB on for the first time, in with a chance stepping up in trip. 

3.30 The step up in trip could see #7 STICK TO THE PLAN in the winner's enclosure. He is bred to enjoy this trip as his dam won two middle distance races. While #3 RELENTLESS PURSUIT just needed his last run after lengthy lay off and has come down significantly in ratings. Keep an eye. 

4.00 Beautifully bred #6 MOON RIVER has shown some improvement in her morning gallops and isn't one to write off, especially now stepping up in trip. 

4.30 #8 COPPER QUEEN was beaten by a length by Hidden Gold over this track and trip earlier in the month and could feasibly turn the tables on her reopposing foe now locking horns on better terms. Though a bigger danger may be old in tooth #7 RISING BRAVE, who has dropped  from 63 rating mark and is entitled to come on for his last close effort. He is best on handicap after claiming 1.5kg allowance. 

5.00 #3 MONARCH is entitled to improve for the fitting of first-time blinkers and could play a major role if the headgear has the desired effect. 

5.30 #4 AMERICAN ODESSY in the money last start running second at C&D when resuming and should race on the speed, strong claims. While #6 POWER OF NEATH showed up well for a long way on seasonal debut when weakening in the closing stages ( broke his BV) ; should be fitter now after a short break and can upset now running among his age group. 

DAYS BEST: MONARCH

4.05 The hat-trick seeking #3 SILVER FLAMES, who has proved a tough nut to crack of late and the Leitir Mor gelding is backed to relish this step up in trip. 

4.45 #1 JÄGER BOMB has won two times over C&D, and drops in class now, and the veteran is ought to go well in this field. 

5.15 Nicely bred #3 MARKET LEADER finished like a train on his debut to grab second here over 5f earlier this month and the extra furlong looks right up his street. While #4 NORTH STAR out of black type Admirality from ace trainer’s yard has shown some promise in the mornings and cannot be discounted first time out.

6.00 The Bangalore challenger #7 FOREST FLAME landed a grade 3 contest over C&D earlier in the month where she left the opposition for dead and the 3yo filly is expected to remain unbeaten. 

6.30 #5 SASAKWA has been getting closest and she gets the vote today after back-to-back thirds coming into this. Appeals on handicap. 

7.15 #4 PROPERLY POSH came on strong when just beaten last start when first up and with that run under her belly she can go one better. While lightly raced unexposed filly #10 ALPINE DANCER has good early speed and carrying less weight, can upset. 

7.45 Well bred #1 WHITE RIVER doesn’t belong to this class and warrants a fair amount of respect on debut. 

8.30 #1 ECLAIR returns to 7f  after failing to stay a mile here when last seen, 
and could resume her earlier progress. 

DAYS BEST: FOREST FLAME

3.00 #3 DILBAR drops back in trip and should make a bold. 

3.30 #7 BRAVE expected to lead/box seat having drawn the rails, one to beat. While #2 DANCING LANCES just needed his last run and could make a race of it. Don’t ignore. 

4.00 #1 RHAPSODY rates the one to beat on the back of her third in Bangalore oaks  grade 2 and, with the step back in trip to suit, she is fancied to defy top weight for the stable. 

4.30 #3 ECLAIR is entitled to come on plenty from her first start of the season and, on her best form, has proven to be better than the opposition she encounters on this occasion. While got abroad well bred daughter of Champs Élysées #5 PARISAN represents a top yard and is an interesting contender on first racecourse appearance. Keep an eye. 

5.00 #8 SPEED AIR was not beaten far into second on seasonal debut back from the spell. Winner ( Hidden Gold) has since franked that form when winning again easily on derby day. Distance suits. 

5.30 The got abroad #9 SMOKIN’ HOT would not have to be anything special to land this on her debut. The well-bred and expensively bought filly does not meet any outstanding rivals and may be good enough first time up.

6.00 #7 C’EST L’AMOUR has struggled in higher grades in recent months but her previous form suggests that she can win a race of this nature.
