Formscan By Alan Magee - FINAL MELODY has filled the runner-up spot on her latest three starts including behind Love Bomb at Down Royal but convincingly reversed those placings over course and distance last month. The Ado McGuinness-trained filly also holds The Love Machine and Ninth Crusade on that run and gets the vote to gain a deserved success. Alkutonic showed good pace in a 6f maiden here last time when only weakening inside the final furlong and looks a threat dropping in trip on her handicap debut. Hello Isla was placed twice in handicaps over this trip for Richard Hannon last month and is another to consider.
An extended handicap for two years old only (80 = 9st 12lbs)
Penalties - (after calculation of the handicap) A winner shall carry 7lb extra for each race won.
