Verdict
CHAMPION ISLAND is drawn to attack and may be able to make all just as he did when getting off the mark at Chelmsford last month. He can continue his progression, as might fellow last time out winner Sir Albert who looks set to be suited by the step up to 7f on handicap debut. Of the rest, Dubai Time didn't progress as expected following her debut but could make more of an impact now handicapping.
