Forecasts

Shining Jewel (11/4), Mistral Star (9/2), Maman Joon (6/1), Shiva Shakti (6/1), Value Added (6/1), Beccara Rose (7/1), Queen Emma (12/1), Ghara (14/1), Wodhooh (18/1), Eastern Empress (22/1), Climate Friendly (28/1), Gather Ye Rosebuds (33/1), Marmara Sea (33/1), Night At Sea (40/1), Loddon (50/1), Showy (150/1), Mrs Twig (150/1)

A cracking maiden. The Gosden stable has won this 4 times since 2017 so the suggestion is SHIVA SHAKTI who made a very promising start to her career when second at Yarmouth last autumn and is the mount of Frankie Dettori from the stable's 3 runners. Value Added, a very promising second on her course debut last year, Shining Jewel and the selection's stablemate Eastern Empress are others who look to have bright futures, while Queen Emma and Maman Joon are newcomers to moinitor in the betting.
