JUBILANT QUEEN won a shade cosily at Nottingham last week. Clive Cox' filly is taken to defy a penalty and go in again here. Buy Art has been threatening to get his head back in front of late and Red Gift had been running well before a below par effort at Ripon last time. The Black Jacobin returned to form at Chepstow on his latest start with Barbs Princess back in third and remains fairly handicapped on his best form but this looks tougher than the sprint My Sweet Lord picked up at Brighton last month.
