Makadamia has comfortably the best form having made an encouraging debut behind Kayfleur at Warwick but she was well beaten on her only subsequent start when odds-on at Wetherby. David Pipe is also represented by Western Diva, who made a very promising start behind Celestial Island at Towcester last April though on much quicker ground than she'll encounter here. IVOR'S QUEEN made a bright start to her career behind the experienced Assam Black at Taunton in November when the remainder were well beaten. She'll improve for that run and is given the nod to go one better. Kentford Myth looked well at home in soft ground when staying on nicely over 1m5f at Newbury and with this trip and going likely to suit can make her presence felt. Rhythm Star is out of a winning bumper and may prove best of the newcomers.
