In depth

Verdict

Pearly Star, Classic Rock and Star of Germany are the three to look at here and Pearly Star gets the vote. Classic Rock took a novices' handicap chase in fine style and then followed that win with a disappointing effort on a return visit to the track. he is best watched here. Star of Germany won a seller a couple of years ago but stepped up on that form when a good third in a handicap hurdle last time. He can run well off top weight. Pearly Star is less exposed than the rest of his rivals and shaped well in a novices' contest last time. That was only selling class, but he appears well treated here and Pearly Star can lead them home.
