RAHEEN House has some excellent bits of form in the book and he can enjoy his own moment in the spotlight by winning the EBF Stallions Cocked Hat Stakes at Goodwood.

This one-mile-three-furlong contest has served as a Derby trial in days gone by and while Raheen House has no Epsom pretensions, victory here could put him firmly in the mix for next month's Ascot Derby - otherwise known at the King Edward VII Stakes.

Raheen House took three attempts to get off the mark last term, but his eventual York victory in October was deemed enough by Brian Meehan to warrant a swift step up to Group One level in the Racing Post Trophy.

The Sea The Stars colt ran well enough in fourth, defying his 16-1 tag to be beaten just over two lengths by Rivet and that run was certainly no fluke judged on his reappearance effort.

Pitched in against Shutter Speed in conditions company at Newbury last month, he had to concede 5lb to both the winner, who has since gone on to land the Musidora, and the third, Enable, who claimed the Cheshire Oaks in style subsequently.

With both fillies on the Classic trial, the merit of Raheen House's form is there for all to see and it will be disappointing if he cannot step up on that, with a switch up in trip also appearing sure to suit.

Queen Of Time kicked off her campaign with victory on the Sussex Downs at the start of the month and she can go in again in the Brenda Hamilton Fillies' Handicap.

She had just three juvenile outings and although she failed to hit the target on any of those occasions, her second place behind Cashla Bay at Newmarket on her final run certainly showed more than a glimpse of promise.

Queen Of Time then picked up where she left off at Goodwood on her return, overcoming a tardy start to win by a comfortable length and a quarter.

That was only a moderate maiden even but she appeared to have a fair bit left in the locker and the handicapper has actually done her a favour by dropping her 1lb in the interim.

Racing off a mark of 79, Queen Of Time is clearly no world beater as yet, but she should be more than good enough on her handicap debut.

Atty Persse was once viewed as a possible to line up in the main event at Epsom last week, but he returns to action in the much less glamorous Watch Racing UK On BT TV Handicap at Haydock.

Roger Charlton (pictured) has always held this son of Frankel in high regard and he did little to dispel hopes of a fine future when winning a Sandown maiden in decent style on his only juvenile start.

Subsequently snapped up by Godolphin, Charlton believes his charge is far from Derby calibre at present and opted to bring him back into action in a handicap at Sandown last month.

He duly won that event but was made to work hard, with a step up in trip in the 10 furlongs looking the logical next step.

Charlton has set his sights on the King Edward VII with this colt and he really should be winning off a mark of 91 if is he to realise those kind of pretensions.
