Forecasts

Island Of Life (7/4), Lady Dancealot (7/2), Procedure (4/1), Awesome (11/2), Charming Guest (8/1), Ocelot (14/1), Seprani (16/1), Queen In Waiting (20/1), Coto (20/1)

Verdict

An interesting finale in which the consistent front-runner Awesome and the free-racing Procedure could set this up for a fast-finisher, so there are a number of possible candidates on which to focus. The most obvious is Island Of Life who blew her winning chance at the start at Haydock, but she's a further 4lb higher in the weights today, whilst Seprani has that worrying feel of an always 'unlucky' loser. At a likely tasty price, COTO should shape well. She was a regular Newcastle AW winner in 2016 (prior to foaling), she's caught the eye on each racecourse appearance since May and is very handily weighted with the 7lb claim of Andrew Slattery a plus.
