Verdict
This is anybody’s race with only a speculative vote going to PEARL NOIR. He didn’t get the clearest of runs in the closing stages when favourite at Chelmsford last time and is taken to reverse running with third-placed Barnsdale. Great Expectations has done all his winning over further so far while Hadley has yet to win anywhere yet but was placed over 6f here recently when ahead of Sea Of Green. Kinloch Pride has not raced since August but is not badly weighted and Lady Bacchus has a shout off her current mark having won at Wolverhampton in January.
