Verdict
ROSDHU QUEEN finished clear of a field that including three subsequent winners on her debut at Ripon last month. Entries in the Lowther and Cheveley Park Stakes suggests she can take this before going on to better things. Sandreamer boasts the highest official rating after placed efforts in Pattern company and she has the beating of both Jollification and Bridge Night on that form while Lasilia ran well in a Listed event at Sandown last time and finished well ahead of Miss Diva when sixth at Ascot earlier. Sound Of Guns was an impressive maiden winner and New Fforest is another who looks likely to take another step forward here.
