15/2

Didn't need to improve to win 12-runner juvenile hurdle at Fairyhouse (16f, good to soft, 5/2) 7 days ago, responding well. Remains to be seen how he performs on return to Flat, poor on last start.

Back to form, in first-time hood, when neck third of 10 to Miss Vizeun in minor event at this course (10.7f, 9/4) 19 days ago. 7 lb better off with winner now and is one for the shortlist. Tongue strap on 1st time.

Forecasts

Satono Chevalier (4/5), Clever Capall (15/2), Gordons Aura (15/2), Oranmore (8/1), Knocknakilla (10/1), Magi Gal (10/1), Nevada Queen (11/1), Anjah (12/1), Miss Vizeun (25/1), Spirit Of Ash (40/1), Wish Me (50/1), Foreign Policy (66/1), Itsnoteasyhi (125/1), Golden Forest (150/1)

NEVADA QUEEN bounced back to form here last time and figures off a handy mark. She gets the nod in an open-looking contest. Satono Chevalier and Clever Capall head the list of dangers.
