Finished ninth of 12 at Vaal over 6f (handicap) four weeks ago; a winner over C&D; on target twice in her last six outings; she's an attractive contender.

Scored by just over 1l over 5½f at Vaal (handicap) last month; a proven winner with a wins-runs record of 4-12 and hails from a good yard; warrants respect as may still be a step ahead of the handicapper despite ratings hike and he can cope with this step up in class.

Boasts winning form over C&D; came home ninth, beaten 6l, when close behind Gaelic Dancer in August in a stakes race; this looks a decent race so looks opposable.

Not beaten that far in fifth (just over 3l) over 6f here (handicap, dropped a few pounds since) six weeks ago; has winning track form; passed over despite this looking a little easier than last time.

Good effort when close up (Vaal) 46 days ago; has scored over C&D; now off a higher mark; easy enough to take on with handicapper increasing the burden.

Verdict

King Of Venus has run well previously over this C&D while Arilena has to be on the shortlist, although she could struggle to defy a hike in the weights. But CHIEFTAIN is strongly fancied to come out on top. He is going for another success at this trip.
