Verdict
PEARL GLORY (NAP) went close in a Group 3 contest on the Turf course at Lingfield last month. She’ll be sharper for that comeback run and makes more appeal on today’s favourable terms than Morag Mccullagh. The latter steps back up in trip after placing in Listed company at Chelmsford while Eidikos, Snooze N You Lose and the Irish filly Let's have all come up short at this level so far. Clitheroe is upped in class after landing a novices race over 6f though ran well in the Prestige Stakes at Goodwood last term while Happy Craf is hard to assess on her winning form in Bahrain.
