3/1

Twice-raced maiden. 10/1, nose second of 9 to reopposing Machiavellian Lady in C&D novice 37 days ago and she's 7lb better off with that rival now. Another bold show likely.

Forecasts

Calm Waters (7/4), Qatar Moon (3/1), Tayala (5/1), The African Queen (6/1), Machiavellian Lady (15/2), Checkmeout (18/1), Queues Likely (22/1), Inbetweenus (28/1), Spirit Charmer (28/1), Keep My Secret (40/1), Cordelin (80/1), Where Is The Love (150/1)

The well-bred CALM WATERS won't need to be any great shakes to make a winning start for the Gosden stable, with confidence in her chance increased should the betting vibes be strong. Qatar Moon is perhaps the one most likely to profit should the selection fail to deliver. Tayala and Brighton-winner The African Queen are others likely to have a say.
