Mountain Queen should come on for her Nottingham debut but will need to do so. Whimsy has adequate form on various all-weather surfaces and now tackles Turf for the first time. There remains the possibility she's yet to find her ideal trip but has a fair chance. Bellstreet Bridie has been placed on all three completed starts this term, all at this trip and looks capable of landing a small maiden or handicap. However, ATLANTIS BLUE made a promising debut at Newbury last season and also ran with credit when fourth in a Saint-Cloud maiden. Only beaten half a length on reappearance in April, she rates the form choice and is the one to beat.
