Queen Of Deauville²⁴

Weight: 9-7| Age: 2

T: C & M Johnston J: F Norton

Forecasts

Snuggle (5/4), Queen Of Deauville (13/8), Brownlee (9/2), Match Play (11/2), Sugar Hill Babe (6/1), Tanzanite (10/1), Acton Bell (12/1), Thunder Star (18/1)

QUEEN OF DEAUVILLE created a good impression on her Carlisle debut and is fancied to defy the penalty with improvement on the cards. The drop back to 5f should help Match Play and he's next best ahead of Nottingham third Sugar Hill Babe.
