QUEEN OF TIME is making her seasonal debut but should go close on these terms. She improved with every start last year, culminating in a second at Newmarket in October, and has a bit to spare at the weights with Sheikspear, who was second over 7f at Kempton last term, and Leicester runner-up Harry Beau. Tenby Two and Patchwork were both well beaten on their respective debuts but are expected to finish closer today.
