SYRIAN PEARL has won the last two of these from higher marks and looks to have been trained with a hat-trick in mind after a good run at Yarmouth so gets a speculative vote in a very competitive event. Saaheq returned from over a year off and made a winning debut for Mick Appleby at Doncaster where he was well supported then defied 5lb extra at Sandown. Both runs were over the minimum but this trip will hold no fears. The stable also run Case Key, who goes unpenalised for landing an apprentice race at Ripon on Saturday. Belated Breath scored here in May and at Salisbury in August but couldn't quite cope with a huge weight at Goodwood a few days later. Stewardess was taking on better company at Hamilton after completing her double and didn't quite get the run of the race. Irish raider Admirality couldn't handle heavy going at Listowel after landing a qualifier for this at Carlisle but it was very testing ground when Haverland won on the latter track. The progressive Cale Lane looks best of the remainder.
