Verdict
PEARL HUNTSMAN finished fourth in a hot Newmarket maiden earlier in the season and a repeat of that form makes him very difficult to oppose in this company. No Rain is closely related to a number of 1m4f performers so expect to see her run well. Broadway Dancer was very disappointing at Ripon on handicap debut and might be best watched this afternoon until a reason for that effort comes to light. Harsh But Fair has already won a bumper this summer but was convincingly despatched on the flat since. Tayacoba has place claims though strikes us more of a type for handicaps in the future.
