Another Nightmare, who got off the mark for the season at Hamilton a fortnight ago, returns to Scotland tomorrow with excellent prospects of following-up.

Trained at Scorton by David Barker, the North Yorkshire sprinter goes for the Ballantrae Handicap and is napped to oblige under Tyrone Williams.

Having finished a close second to Swan At Whalley at Musselburgh last month. Another Nightmare made no mistake at Hamilton.

Using her blistering speed to full effect, she quickly built up a commanding lead, and, never looking likely to be caught, crossed the line four lengths ahead of Henry The Hawk.

Having since been raised no less than 11lb by the handicapper. Another Nightmare has more on her plate here. But she is fancied to take plenty of catching all the same.

Taffs Well, who has proved a revelation since joining Brian Ellison, can complete a hat-trick of wins in the Craigie Handicap.

Formerly trained by Lynda Ramsden, for whom he often flattered only then to deceive, Taffs Well has scored at Musselburgh and Chester for Ellison in the style of a horse at the top of his game.

He faces his stiffest task yet tomorrow, but is the one they all have to beat. Michael Fenton again has the mount.

Ultra Calm gets the vote in the Kilmacolm Handicap.

A good second to Archie Babe, when the pair finished clear of the rest at Redcar recently, Ultra Calm's chances of victory tomorrow were further advertised when Archie Babe scored again at Pontefract yesterday.

The smart Hammer And Sickle (2.15), disqualified for a serious misdemeanour by his jockey after scoring convincingly at Doncaster earlier in the month, can gain compensation in the opener, while Tom Dougal (3.15) is fancied to return to from under John Egan in a race which promises to suit him well.

At Goodwood, Pairumani Star can lift the A & J Bull Rated Handicap for John Dunlop and Pat Eddery.

Three-times a winner last season, including once on this course, Pairumani Star shaped well at Newbury on his reappearance last month until lack of hard conditions took its tool on the tiring ground. He will be hard to beat tomorrow.

Great Dane should not be overlooked in the Bt Alex Brown Festival stakes.

Henry Cecil's colt has been working in splendid style at Newmarket and although this is a pretty daunting task on his reappearance, his chances should not be underestimated.

It is always worth noting when Kieren Fallon joins forces with Brighton trainer Gary Moore - the pair have a pretty formidable record - and they team-up with Mutabassir in the HLB Kidsons Trophy Handicap.

An eight lengths winner at Brighton last month, Mutabassir was beaten a short head at odds-on in a handicap on the same course the following week when apprentice ridden. With Fallon on board, losses can now be recovered.

Hawriyah, runner-up in both her starts this term, can make it third-time lucky in the EBF Conqueror Stakes.
