Forecasts

Sera Dawn (2/1), So Smart (5/2), Lipsink (4/1), Penguin Island (11/2), Sergeant Pep (8/1), Glamorous Express (22/1)

PENGUIN ISLAND comes here on the up so is fancied to follow up her breakthrough Chepstow success at the chief expense of the reliable duo Sera Dawn and Sergeant Pep who can chase home Henry Candy's filly in that order.
