Verdict

ISLAND OF LIFE has been a model of consistency lately and this filly can gain a well deserved second success of the campaign for the prolific William Haggas team. Awesome may prove the biggest danger with Clive Cox's filly sure to be better suited by this easy 5f compared to her latest run at the much stiffer Ascot. In-form Kodiac Express is running too well to ignore and is another likely contender for the fairer sex.
