      In depth

      Verdict

      QUEEN'S PEARL (NAP) looks to have every chance of going in again. Roger Varian's filly won a higher grade contest at Newmarket last time and is only 3lb higher for this. Celtic Sixpence is upped 5lb for winning over track and trip in June and that looks stronger form than Gold Waltz's victory at Chepstow. Honeysuckle Lil went close at Newcastle last time and is preferred to Pull The Plug, second over 7f at Leicester recently.
