This looks an excellent opportunity for The Queen's FORECASTER (NAP) to boost her paddock value. She's been a bit unlucky not to win so far and was beaten under a length when favourite last time at Musselburgh – the winner wasn't beaten far off a higher mark next time. It would be no surprise if the four-year-old Amazing Charm proved the pick of James Tate's two runners as Pivotal Flame has disappointed since making a winning start at Wolverhampton and makes her Turf debut. Azure Amour is back over her best trip and looks best of the rest.
