The Gosden yard holds a strong hand, with MARKSMAN QUEEN taken to build on an encouraging first effort in handicap company and prove just too strong for stablemate Coppice, who didn't fire when favourite for a Guineas Trial in the spring but has had a confidence booster on AW since and is evidently well regarded. Clounmacon shaped well when just failing to get there on her Curragh handicap debut last month and Johnny Murtagh won this in 2021 so she's on the shortlist along with Chelsea Green.
