Noteable to make it third time lucky for Dascombe at Haydock

- By GLENDALE

Noteable can open her account at the third attempt in the Casumo Best Odds Guaranteed Fillies' Novice Stakes at Haydock.

Tom Dascombe's youngster made her racecourse debut in what looked quite a strong five-runner race at Newmarket in early August, a theory which has been given weight by the subsequent success of runner-up Sense Of Duty.

Noteable was last but one on the July Course, but was beaten less than seven lengths and her effort did certainly not lack promise. It was no great surprise to see her step forward on her second start at Chester under more positive tactics making much of the running before being mowed down late by the more experience­d Scarlet Dancer. Having proved an easy surface is of no great concern, this looks a good opportunit­y for Dascombe's filly to open her account.

Beyond Equal gets the vote in the Download The Casumo App Handicap.

The Stuart Kittow-trained sprinter was thoroughly impressive at Salisbury earlier in the campaign and also has a course and distance win at Haydock on his CV.

He has been performing soundly in defeat since that Salisbury strike in June, most recently finishing a close-up seventh behind Hurricane Ivor in the Portland Handicap at Doncaster. The form of that prestigiou­s event has already worked out extremely well, with the winner having since followed up in a Newbury

Group Three and runner-up Boundless Power going one better at Ayr.

Beyond Equal has dropped back to a mark in the 80s and looks sure to go well.

Baileys Accolade holds obvious claims in the second division of the Yorkshire Jump Racing Is Back EBF Novice

Stakes at Redcar. The daughter of Aclaim is from a family trainer Mark Johnston knows well, having saddled several of her siblings - including Listed scorer Baileys Jubilee - to win races.

Baileys Accolade attracted strong market support on her debut at York last month - and while she ultimately had to make do with minor honours in third, she suggested she is more than capable of getting her head in front before the season is out.

Peripeteia showed a good deal of promise with her initial second place and can step up again in the Cazoo Novice Median Auction Stakes at Newcastle.
