This looks a really good opportunity for EDEN NIGHTS who gets the vote over Queen's Envoy and Valeur. The selection hails from the John Gosden yard and she has shown enough in her two runs at Windsor to make her a leading player today. She also has the best of the draw and if she handles the surface then she should take plenty of beating. Queen's Envoy and Valeur in contrast are both drawn in the car park which won't help their chance. Queen's Envoy went close at Lingfield last time but that was back in October so she may be sharper for this run. Valeur shaped with promise on her debut at Kempton and she should improve for the outing, but she will need some luck to score from the outside draw. Henry Cecil sends Titbit to post but she well beaten on her debut at Windsor and she is hard to fancy off the back of that effort. This looks a good opportunity for Eden Nights who will be hard to beat.
