Flaming Creek, Island Stream and Labelthou look the ones to concentrate on in this poor affair and the confident vote goes to Island Stream now he returns to novice company. The gelding from the John Jenkins yard was a fair fifth behind Bound in a class D handicap last time and he is taken to score despite giving weight to most of his rivals. Flaming Creek rates the main danger but he is rated 20 pounds inferior to the selection so he is opposed. Labelthou showed improved form to be second behind Optimate last time but you could not guarantee her reproducing that form. Of the remainder Aqua Pura is from a shrewd yard and should be noted in the market but we are happy to side with the experienced Island Stream.
