Race preview
This is a slight drop in class for PEARLY ISLAND and he is taken to stamp his authority under top weight. The Lucy Wadham-trained gelding impressed when he won over course and distance on his penultimate start and, having also previously tasted success under Eddie Edge, who claims 10lb in the plate, there is a lot to like about his chance. Ike Sport is holding his form well and also enters calculations, while Mullinaree is respected too.
