Thirsk fourth Destination Aim races over this shorter trip for the first time but Cadeaux Pearl was third at Leicester after winning at Catterick and has a chance. The three-year-old Percy's Gal also enters calculations and Bajan Bear doesn't look badly treated, though hasn't raced since disappointing at Kempton in February. THATCHERITE met interference at Carlisle last time and is a consistent sort overall. He gets the vote in a race that probably isn't as competitive as the numbers suggest, though Diamond Blue should be on the premises if reproducing the form of her latest second at Leicester.
