PEARL EYE shaped very well starting out for his new yard/after 6 months off when third in a C&D handicap 2 weeks ago and, clearly handicapped to strike, he could well be the answer granted a good pace to aim at. Candonomore is an obvious danger arriving at the top of his game, whilst Spirit of Acklam is also of interest given he's unexposed at 1m.
