Verdict
FOSTER'SISLAND couldn't complete his three-timer within the space of a month at this track 13 days ago but was far from disgraced in what was a competitive heat. He's now 18lb higher than when winning here three starts ago but still looks the one to beat. Stable companion Onlyfoolsownhorses is a possible each-way option if forgiven his disappointing latest run. He'd previously shaped quite nicely here when a staying-on sixth and is not to be discounted. Bobby Bow is not ruled out, despite top weight, either as he journeys north from Gloucestershire with Bonny Houxty and If Karl's Berg Did also worthy of respect.
