Verdict

PEARL NOIR won a maiden race over track and trip last time. This looks no tougher and Scott Dixon's charge can follow-up. Robyn is winner on the Polytrack but hasn't gone close to scoring at this track so far while Wolverhampton scorer Borough Boy has yet to encounter Fibresand. Island Express has been placed here but is winless in 27 starts and the remainder are even harder to fancy on what little they've shown.
