Stable companions Gamesome and One Boy are respected, but it is hard to get away from PEARL NOIR, the winner of this race for the last two years who is fairly handicapped and back in form after scoring at Thirsk on his latest start. Shesthedream and Dapper Man have each-way claims, while King Crimson could go close if avoiding a battle up front with the selection. Top-weight Captain Lars is not out of it, either.
