In depth

Verdict

Pearl Noir shot out of the stalls and made all at Kempton last month. He's been raised 6lb and will be having his first start on the track but David Parkes' claim will ensure he will be difficult to catch. FLYING BEAR (NAP) is a bit better class than these and was returning from a long break when running reasonably well at Lingfield last month. He's only 1lb higher than a victory at Newbury in July and he can gain his first all-weather success. Secret Millionaire was beaten in a seller last month and Welease Bwian has looked a few pounds high since scoring at Kempton in December but The Dandy Yank won on his only start on the track.
