16/1

Thrice-raced maiden. 125/1, eighth of 12 in maiden at Chelmsford (1¼m) 13 days ago. In good hands and wouldn't be a shock were she to prove a different proposition in handicaps. Interesting to see what the betting makes of her.

Forecasts

Blue Hero (5/4), Khangai (4/1), Checkmeout (5/1), Galactic Glow (8/1), A Poet's Secret (11/1), Chelsea Flower (16/1), Miss Raindrop (20/1), Susanbequick (22/1)

Course specialist BLUE HERO was a bit better than the result over a longer trip here last time and is taken to land an eighth win at this venue. Roger Varian's recent Nottingham runner-up Checkmeout is second choice ahead of Khangai.
