THE annual pyjama party starts at Ascot with the Dubai Duty Free Shergar Cup Dash Handicap run over five furlongs, and with Brian Meehan's horses in great form, have an each-way nibble on TOCA MADERA (1.35).

This creature was fourth of 14 over course and distance a fortnight ago when rated 93, so must be of interest racing off a ledge of 91.

In the Dubai Duty Free Shergar Cup Stayers' Handicap run over two miles LA VITA NOVA (2.10) is a very interesting animal making the trip across the Irish Sea for Jessie Harrington. Second of 20 in a warm heat at The Curragh over a mile and six furlongs in May when running off a mark of 81, the four-year-old looks well-treated racing off a rating of 84 with cheek-pieces fitted for first time.

Being drawn in stall three of 10 is a Brucie bonus.
