Forecasts

Tiaraqueen (11/8), Moonfire (13/8), Divine Presence (15/2), Elderflower (9/1), Midnight Drive (12/1), Ravensbourne (14/1), Zandita (40/1), Mucha Muchacha (125/1)

Probably a good novice, with all the major yards represented, and TIARAQUEEN can build on her promising debut at Kempton 7 weeks ago and come out on top. Newcomer Divine Presence is very interesting for the Gosden stable, while there is surely better to come from Moonfire.
