Forecasts

Iron Lion (8/13), Incremental (2/1), Isle Of Sark (2/1), Fleur De Mer (7/2), Highland Frolic (14/1), It's All About You (16/1), Nova Legend (40/1)

FLEUR DE MER has been in excellent form this year and showed a willing attitude when second at Thirsk 12 days ago, so she gets the marginal vote ahead of Isle of Sark, who has also been knocking on the door lately. Incremental is another one to consider despite an underwhelming reappearance.
