Argentan made a promising debut at Newmarket last month and can claim the first division of the EBF Herringfleet Maiden at Yarmouth today.

A son of Gulch from the family of Arc winner Carnegie, the two-year-old finished just over three and a half lengths third to subsequent Dewhurst Stakes third Zentsov Street at Newmarket, looking a danger until inexperience told in the closing stages.

Argentan, who has passed into the care of trainer George Foster from Peter Chapple-Hyam, can lose his maiden tag here.

Bintang Timor gets the vote for the day's Showcase Handicap, the Tote Trifecta Stakes, at Yarmouth.

The winner of an apprentice event at Newmarket in May, Willie Musson's charge put up some useful efforts in defeat during the summer, especially when second to the useful Teofilio back at Newmarket in June.

The five-year-old has failed to trouble the judge recently but has shown glimmers of form and is now 5lb lower than his highest winning rating.

Inn At The Top can capture the Goffs of Cheltenham Handicap Chase for Yorkshire trainer Jim Turner.

The seven-year-old progressed well in his first season over fences, winning novice events at Doncaster last December and on the new course at Cheltenham in April.

Making his return at Carlisle over two miles earlier this month the gelding put up a promising display, staying on strongly in the closing stages to finish third, beaten a length and a half, behind Adamatic.

Inn At The Top will be much better suited by this extended two-and-a-half mile trip and can take the feature race on the second day of Cheltenham's first meeting of the season.

Trainer Ian Williams can land the race sponsored in his honour, the Ian Williams' Owners Novices' Chase, with The Brewmaster.

Well regarded by his trainer, the gelding scored at the first time of asking at Towcester earlier in the month, beating Merry Path by three and a half lengths.

This stiff two miles will not hold any terrors for him and he can maintain his unbeaten start to the season.

Ferbet Junior will bid to claim some more notable scalps at Down Royal a week on Saturday.

The gelding, who saw off former Cheltenham Gold Cup winner Imperial Call in the Powers Gold Label Champion Chase at Gowran Park a fortnight ago, is to take on Dorans Pride and Florida Pearl in the £100,000 James Nicholson Wine Merchants Champion Chase.

Trainer Jessica Harrington said yesterday: "The plan is to run at Down Royal. The horse is in great form and Barry Geraghty will ride.

"I had thought about running in the £20,000 novice chase at the meeting but have decided to send Ferbet Junior over three miles instead."

David Nicholson has not decided whether to aim for the new race with Mumm Mildmay Novices' Chase winner Spendid, "He will be left in at the forfeit stage on Monday and after that we will make a decision," the trainer said.
