SHAMAIEL, denied a trip to Paris because of traffic problems across theChannel, can sample success by the seaside tomorrow.

Clive Brittain wanted to run her in the Group One Prix Vermeille at Longchamp on Sunday but has no qualms about re-routing her to Yar-mouth.

And it goes without saying that the filly has a much easier task at theNorfolk track in the John Musker Fillies' Stakes, a Listed race over a mile and a quarter.

The daughter of Lycius had not quite been given the Brittain "tilting atwindmills" treatment but she was successfully dropped in class after her ninth in a very competitive renewal of the Listed Galtres Stakes at York.

And she showed the benefit as she hacked up by seven lengths from Flame Of Truth in an 11-furlong maiden at Bath last week. She now looks ready to open her account in better company.

Brittain can initiate a double by saddling Emali to capture the opening Bennetts Electrical Megastores Claiming Stakes. Emali is no world-beater but showed enough when third to Hard Lines in a 15-runner selling handicap on the same Bath card to suggest that this race is well within his capabilities.

Smart Predator can gain quick compensation for a valiant effort at Doncaster last Wednesday by preying on his rivals in the Tote Credit Club Stakes.

The four-year-old grey, trained by John Quinn, gave an excellent performance to finish third to Compton Banker, beaten just a length and a half, in the Tote Trifecta Portland Handicap.

He may even have got closer to the winner had Kevin Darley not been forced to check his mount when launching his challenge.

Smart Predator had won his previous race over this course and distance when he swept aside Mizhar by two and a half lengths. He looks a good bet to take the "Showcase Handicap".

Fatehalkhair can continue his love affair with Sedgefield by recording his 10th course success in the Johnny Ridley Memorial Novices' Chase.

The eight-year-old had won seven races over hurdles there before trainer Brian Ellison switched him to fences at the start of this season.

And he has done everything right by winning both his starts here over this extended two miles.

Fatehalkhair has jumped well in the main and can only get better as he bids to add more victories to those he has achieved on the Flat as well as over hurdles.

The championship-winning team of trainer Martin Pipe and jockey Tony McCoy have started to farm the Cleveland track recently and look set for another profitable afternoon.

Pick of the Nicholashayne raiding party could be Vent d'Aout, who goes for the Raisby Quarries Handicap Chase.The six-year-old has already notched three wins this term, the latest over this two mile-five-furlong trip earlier this month when he slammed Tashreef by 12 lengths.
