        Verdict

        A good sprint and IRISH PEARL is our recommendation ahead of Harry Up and Matsunosuke. The selection had been in cracking form towards the end of last season and looks to relish this surface. This is the toughest examination faced to date but if she can transfer her six furlong form to five, she has claims at a big price. Harry Up runs in claimers more often than not but is a genuine five furlong performer and thus is respected greatly. Matsunosuke is here under a penalty. He did finish behind How's She Cutting when pair met here in handicap company in November although it's worth noting that the Coogan runner has shown improved form since. Excusez Moi was listed class but the jury is out at present. Pawan continues to try hard though seems more suited to placing rather than winning in his time. Rebel Duke would have finished closer on his most recent start had he not blundered badly at the starting gate. Irish Pearl gets the vote in a fair race by the track's standards.
