Zgharta (9/4), Goldie Trickett (3/1), Victory Queen (10/3), Naga (7/1), Pelean (8/1), Model Yuko (10/1), Mahogany Bay (12/1), Treasured Angel (80/1)

VICTORY QUEEN is a half-sister to connections' 2022 2000 Guineas winner Coroebus so could be up to making a winning start for a stable that has an excellent record with 3-y-o newcomers. Saffron Beach's sister Goldie Trickett is another eye-catching debutante having fetched €1,650,000 as a yearling. The Gosden stable has a good record in this and Pelean looks the pick of its 2 runners.
