Verdict

PEARL outran her odds of 20/1 when finishing two places in front of Always Blue in third on debut at York last month and is likely to take a step forward from that effort. If improving as expected, the daughter of Le Havre will prove a tough nut to crack. Foxy Night finished an encouraging fourth over 7f at Kempton and, with this extra furlong likely to suit, she has to be respected. Marhayb looks next best.

Top Tip: Pearl (2)
Watch out for: Always Blue (4)

A great opportunity for PEARL, who didn't make the track at two or three but showed up really well in a hot York novice against males on her belated debut at the Dante meeting. A sister to French 1,000 Guineas/Oaks winner Avenir Certain, any progress on that initial effort should see her off the mark. Always Blue looks the danger but needs to settle, with Marhayb a likely improver on what was just an okay debut.
