Hello Queen

9st 3lb

J: Shane Gray

T: Kevin Ryan

Two AW wins early in the year, one over C&D; made a winning turf debut at Doncaster in July and she ran well for third in a strong fillies' handicap at Pontefract in September (6f, good to soft); still open to improvement after just six runs and her rivals would be wise not to allow her too much rope up front.

Made it three wins from five starts when making all on her handicap and turf debut at Doncaster (6f, soft) in July last time out; this well-bred 3yo could still have more to offer and she's a strong contender up 4lb.

Form & Verdict
Won a Pontefract novice (6f, good to soft) last October and a nursery over this C&D (heavy; first start since being gelded) the following month; underwent wind surgery in the spring and was having his second start back when beaten under a length into second of ten at Chester (6f, soft) 12 days ago; possibly unlucky not to win that and high on the list.

Form & Verdict
Progressed in his first three starts, easily getting off the mark in a Thirsk maiden (6f, heavy) in May, but well held in both handicaps since and was particularly poor back at Thirsk (6f, soft) last month; has something to prove now.

Form & Verdict
Responded well to cheekpieces when off the mark at Windsor (6f, good to firm) last month and, after a lesser effort at Leicester, bounced back to form when beaten less than a length into second of 11 at Chepstow (7f, good to soft; first-time visor) 17 days ago; form claims, but a suspicion that he may prefer the extra furlong now.
