Considered. (Forecast 7.50) DESTINED TO SHINE (IRE) 25 BF b g Dubai Destination Good Shine t Richard Patrick (3) Miss Kerry Lee 112

2 Jockey Colours: Red, white braces, chevrons on sleeves Timeform says: Won at Hereford last month and ran respectably over further at Ludlow subsequently after taking a strong hold. This is tougher. (Forecast 8.50) THREE STAR GENERAL 19 b g Montjeu Honorlina b Bryony Frost D Pipe 112 Jockey Colours: Black, white hoops and sleeves Timeform says: Can often be let down by his attitude but confirmed a return to some sort of form ridden from the front for a change when third at Uttoxeter (23f) last time. Similar tactics could pay dividends here. (Forecast 8.00) U PASSAM 35 b g Black Sam Bellamy One Wild Night t Harrison Beswick (3) Miss C Dyson 109 Jockey Colours: Red, grey hooped sleeves, red cap, grey star Timeform says: Bumper winner on heavy but form over hurdles has been patchy and he departed early on last month's return at Uttoxeter.

Could bounce back for inform yard. (Forecast 15.00) TIMEFORM VIEW: THREE STAR GENERAL lurks on a good mark and ran well from the front at Uttoxeter last time. If similar tactics are pulled off here he could be hard to catch under Bryony Frost. Jabulani is another who is wellhandicapped if reviving back over hurdles, while Hexhamwinner Saint Freule can go well again if keeping up a good attitude.

This interim trip should suit and he can do better. Big shout. (Forecast 2.88) TIMEFORM VIEW: Some promising chasers, with SLANELOUGH narrowly preferred to Scorpion Sid. Mr Mcgo is entitled to have come on for his first run for 20 months at Bangor, while Diablo de Rouhet is interesting on his first go over fences.

(Forecast ) TIMEFORM VIEW: No surprise if MURATELLO was another successful recruit from across the Channel for his new connections. He's already reached a fairly useful level of form having raced just twice in France and seems sure to improve. Bumperwinner Keep Rolling seems sure to have a future in this sphere, while Not Normal should progress from his second at Bangor at the start of the month.

(Forecast 19.00) TIMEFORM VIEW: BACK TO THE THATCH remains with an unexposed element to him, probably yet to show all his stamina, and he could be the answer to this competitive staying handicap. Very First Time is another secondseason chaser who probably has a bigger effort in him, and he's sure to be cherryripe for this. Ami Desbois and Another Venture are others from Chepstow to consider.

9 QUIDS IN (IRE) 22 b g Pour Moi Quixotic b1t B S Hughes D McCain Jnr 115 Jockey Colours: White, royal blue stripe, white and royal blue hooped sleeves and cap Timeform says: Strike rate is hardly compelling (128 overall) but has acquitted himself well the last twice, latterly going down all guns blazing when chasing Tomkevi home at Wetherby. Should be in the mix.

Not discounted. (Forecast 11.00) TIMEFORM VIEW: VOLCANO and Hastrubal both have low mileage and could be the pair to focus on. The latter has chased home progressive types in 2 starts this season and is not passed over at all lightly. Still, preference is for Nigel TwistonDavies' charge, who finished clear of the rest when going close at Uttoxeter and should have more to offer as a stayer.
