Forecasts

Inishmot Prince (9/2), Markievicz (11/2), Gordon Bennett (11/2), Cailin Cliste (15/2), Queen's Pardon (15/2), We're On The Way (12/1), Ampeson (14/1), Andromedas Kingdom (16/1), Jered Maddox (16/1), Lexington Liberty (22/1), Florence Thompson (22/1), Missemma (25/1), Might And Mercy (33/1), Darkdeserthighway (33/1), Sunset Nova (33/1), Cuala Bula (40/1), Misterio (40/1), Arcanears (40/1), Nana Patsy (40/1), Fit For Function (50/1), Tostal (50/1), Woodrow (50/1), Even Flow (50/1), Vento Del Drago (50/1), Two Metres Apart (66/1), Geological (66/1), Misty At Sea (66/1), Bellick (80/1), Sagittarius Rising (100/1), Greek Opera (150/1), Dee Sprinter (200/1)

QUEENS'S PARDON went like the best horse at the weights when worn down only late on over 7f here last month, so she's put forward as the answer now back at 6f. Like the selection, Gordon Bennett will benefit from a return to this trip and is not taken lightly, while others to consider are Inishmot Prince and Fir For Function.
