    In depth

    Verdict

    None of these inspire much confidence. ROYAL PEARL was last of five in a maiden hurdle at Ffos Las last month but the winner went on to land a Grade 2 contest and Tom Gretton’s filly should find this easier. A maiden after 13 starts on the Flat, Becky The Thatcher goes hurdling for the first time and is preferred to Marbeth, well beaten here on her hurdling bow, while Josephine K has yet to complete over timber.
