Forecasts

Neola (4/1), Paramount Love (9/2), Tig Tog (6/1), Elysium Dream (13/2), First Drive (7/1), Faithful Promise (8/1), Onefootinparadise (8/1), Queen Penn (10/1), Hunni (16/1)

NEOLA has plenty of experience having had five starts so far and she can make a winning handicap debut off top weight here. The selection has been contesting Group races of late finishing fifth at Royal Ascot prior to disappointing at the same track last time out. First Drive put a disappointing AW effort behind her when winning at Nottingham last time and can take second ahead of Onefootinparadise who has a leading jockey booked to ride for her handicap debut.
