Forecasts

Queen Of Soldiers (11/8), Charlotte's Web (10/3), French Mistress (5/1), Islanova (6/1), Samra Star (12/1), Pleka (14/1), Heckling (50/1), Mighty Quiet (66/1), Em Jay (66/1), Beset (100/1), Tamborine (200/1), Aughnagomaun (250/1)

Roger Varian's QUEEN OF SOLDIERS looked a sure-fire winner when runner-up at Ascot on her debut only to fluff her lines at Haydock and she is given another chance to get off the mark here. French Mistress and Islanova both have the form to play a part too and can chase her home in that order. Pleka completes the shortlist.
