ARTILLERY, who overcame all sorts of problems to win at York last month, can follow-up at Salisbury tomorrow.

Sir Michael Stoute's colt, a potential top-flight stayer of the future, goes for the Salisbury Festival Conditions Stakes and is expected to take plenty of beating in the hands of Kieren Fallon.

Artillery was constantly denied a clear run in the Melrose Handicap on Knavesmire a fortnight ago, but he still managed to clinch the honours when getting on top near the finish under a never-say-die ride from Fallon.

Still on the upgrade and a horse who should come into his own in Cup races next season, Artillery can hit the bullseye again tomorrow.

Misterah should be a tough nut to crack in the Dick Poole Fillies' Conditions Stakes.

Trained by Marcus Tregoning, whose horses are in cracking form at present, Misterah got off the mark in pleasing style at Newbury last month. She looks a useful prospect.

Sean Woods has a high opinion of Ashdown Express, who lines up for the Stonehenge Conditons Stakes.

The dual winner was particularly impressive at Beverley on his latest outing and is fancied to conplete a hat-trick in this one-mile event.

Lisianski has been in fine form lately and Ian Balding's charge has excellent prospects of completing a hat-trick of wins in the Axminster Apprentice Handicap.

The accomplished Michael Doyle takes the mount on the Kingsclere three-year-old.

Quantity rather than quality is the order of the day at Redcar, where the card has a distinctly autumn tinge to it.

The Clam Handicap over one and three-quarter miles offers Manzoni a great opprtunity to extend his winning sequence.

Mick Easterby's gelding has won four of his last five starts and trotted-up at Chester as recently as last Saturday.

A 6lb penalty is not expected to anchor him tomorrow.

Kevin Ryan's horses are in top shape at the moment and nap selection Florie Nightingale can be another winner for the Hambleton trainer in the Cray Fish Nursery Handicap.

Comfortable winner of a seller at Thirsk last time out, Florie Nightingale looks fairly treated in this handicap over the same distance of seven furlongs.

The featured Maunby Investment Management Handi-cap over six furlongs is the target of Pips Magic, trained by Jim Goldie, who sent out a good winner in Tony Tie at Hamilton on Monday.

Pips Magic finished unplaced on his latest outing, but he has largely been in fine form this season. A bold bid is anticipated in this six-furlongs dash with top apprentice Keith Dalgleish in the saddle.
