Forecasts

Noble Queen (3/1), Tavrina (4/1), Mercurist (11/2), Parknacilla (17/2), Windsorlot (9/1), Red Skye Delight (10/1), Rochford (12/1), The Brora Pobbles (16/1), New Look (18/1), Born To Reason (20/1), Rivas Rob Roy (22/1), Achill Queen (150/1), Mrs Tiffen (300/1)

NOBLE QUEEN has a lot more to recommend her than most at this level and can go one better than she managed over a slightly longer trip here 3 weeks ago. Mercurist is less exposed than most of these and may prove next best ahead of Henry Spiller pair Parknacilla and Rochford.
