In depth

Verdict

Without a win in eight starts in France, Labaik debuts for his new yard and has his first start since June last year. Pearly Prince never figured on his handicap bow having gone close in a maiden race here before that while though Rustique finished third at Kempton in October that was in a lower grade handicap. HEEZARARITY was placed here last month having scored over track and trip in March. Only 1lb higher today, he gets the nod with Shimba Hills perhaps best of the rest.
