Forecasts

Island Native (2/1), Golden Phase (9/2), Elusive Tiger (9/2), Daisy Roots (5/1), Ajrad (7/1), Luxy Lou (10/1), Kenstone (16/1), Gintini (28/1), Alicefromumbridge (50/1), Fragrance (50/1), Klip Klopp (80/1), Tiz Likely (125/1)

ISLAND NATIVE ran as well as he ever has when runner-up at Wolverhampton 10 days ago and eased further in grade, Heather Main's 3-y-o makes plenty of appeal. 1m could be Daisy Roots' optimum trip and she's a threat, with the veteran Kenstone another to consider.
