Forecasts

Tred Softly (11/4), Scrafton (3/1), Dream Serenade (9/2), Asian Wing (11/2), Lineman (8/1), Tingo In The Tale (9/1), Iona Island (18/1), Somepink (100/1), Musical Moon (150/1)

Verdict

A tough one to call as all of them have a few niggling doubts hanging over their heads. However, IONA ISLAND has hit form at the right time for a modest heat such as this and may take the beating if she hits the gates running. Dream Serenade has to be respected after winning in game style last time out. This evening's trip and a 6lb penalty make things tougher for her on this occasion, though. Scrafton has the beating of a few of his old rivals on these terms and is respected ahead of Asian Wing as the best best of the rest. 1. Iona Island 2. Dream Serenade 3. Scrafton
