Cotai Pearl failed to build on a debut second at Musselburgh when well beaten at Thirsk and hasn’t raced since May. Greenroad took a big step forward when winning by four lengths here last month but Parr Fire needs to bounce back from a poor run at Ascot. BEAUTIFUL AISLING ran in the Albany Stakes after close-up seconds at Sandown and Chelmsford. She is not up to that level but should be good enough to take this receiving 4lb from the previous winners.
