        Verdict

        Top weight Pearl Pride should be suited by the step up in trip but is far from certain to handle the testing conditions and preference is for Third Empire, who gets the vote over Platinum Pirate. The selection has a 9lb pull with the last mentioned for the five-and-three-quarters lengths that was between the two over course and distance last month and is entitled to reverse form as that was his first outing of the season, while Karl Burke's horse was fit from the all-weather. Nigel Tinkler's Perfect Balance has shown a liking for testing conditions and has to be respected along with Bond Moonlight, although the last mentioned has a bit to find with the selection and Platinum Pirate on running here last month. Rock Lobster is another worthy of a mention but the vote goes to Third Empire.
