Verdict

This may not be the ideal set-up for ZIGGY'S QUEEN, but she's worth chancing on the strength of her all-weather form last winter. Unexposed 3-y-o Celtic Arrow is feared most, with Dream Illusion, Angels' Share and So Sassy also appealing in a competitive opener.

2	Course winner produced a striking turn of foot (despite a typically awkward head carriage) to win a much stronger event at Lingfield in February. Now attractively handicapped off 6 lb lower following a quiet season on the turf, though she will need plenty to fall right given her wide draw/style. 1st Pick 2 Ziggy's Queen (Ire) Jockey: Harry Russell Trainer: Richard & Peter Fahey J: Harry Russell T: Richard & Peter Fahey	93	-	-	-	15%	6/1

7	Low-mileage 3-y-o filly. Showed improved form to go close on turf/handicap debut at Thirsk (6f). Looked ready for this step up in trip when 2¾ lengths fifth at Doncaster subsequently. Makes appeal against some largely exposed rivals here. 2nd Pick 7 Celtic Arrow (Fr) Jockey: Ryan Sexton Trainer: Julie Camacho J: Ryan Sexton T: Julie Camacho	100	-	-	-	19%	9/2

4	Strong-travelling C&D winner. Won 3 times over the all-weather over the winter/spring. Back on her latest winning mark following a rare poor effort at Southwell (1m) last time and could be worth another chance. 3rd Pick 4 Dream Illusion Jockey: Dylan Hogan Trainer: Michael Herrington J: Dylan Hogan T: Michael Herrington	96	-	-	-	10%	9/1
