Finished runner-up over an extended 1m2f at Down Royal (good-to-firm) at the weekend and appeared to appreciate the drop in trip having been racing over further in recent starts. Races off the same mark here and likely to run well once more.

Forecasts

Claregate Street (5/1), Sharp Operator (5/1), Pirolo (11/2), Reinas Queen (7/1), Misty Mountain (8/1), Always Dancing (10/1), Jigsaw (12/1), Multiviz (14/1), Grey Willow (14/1), Future Frontier (20/1), Sixtyfiveroses (20/1), Great Uncle (25/1), Miss Snossyboots (33/1), Sackfullofdreams (33/1), Bob Moore (33/1), Alohamora (50/1)

REINAS QUEEN was braeking her maiden when winning over C&D last time out and she can record her second victory by taking this competitive looking event off an 8lb higher mark here. The selection raced prominently on that occasion and a repeat of those tactics can see her defeat Pirolo, already a winner twice this season and who finished runner-up at Down Royal on Saturday. Claregate Street has run well the last twice including when runner-up to the selection last time and can take third today.
