GOSSAMER WINGS, beaten a short-head in the Queen Mary at Royal Ascot and not far behind stable companion Fairyland in the Cheveley Park, is top-rated here and can get off to a winning start for the season. Cava is next best and has the advantage of a recent run in a Listed contest at Navan where she didn't get the run of the race but was beaten less than 2l. Forever In Dreams, who won her first two in France, wasn't far behind the selection at Ascot and has changed stables while Lethal Promise beat Inverleigh in a Listed contest at Fairyhouse in September and the latter reappeared to land a similar contest at Navan. Archie Watson has been carrying all before him in the UK but Listed winner Shumookhi hasn't hit the heights so far this season.
