12/1
Made a winning debut here in May. Ran to similar level next 2 starts, but below form when last of 5 in handicap at Hamilton (9.2f, good, 4/1) 38 days ago. Needs to leave latest effort effort well behind.

In first-time visor, fifth of 12 in handicap at this course (7.4f, good to firm, 12/1) 88 days ago, better placed than most. Has dropped further in the weights, but needs to find more to take advantage.

Again below form when seventh of 9 in handicap at Redcar (1m, good to firm, 22/1) 15 days ago. Drops in grade, but still looking for his first win and others make more appeal.

Four-time C&D winner. Again ran creditably when third of 7 in handicap at Ripon (9.8f, soft, 4/1) 20 days ago. Can give another good account back at this venue.

Off the mark at Nottingham at the beginning of the month. However, not in the same form 3 days later when sixth of 11 in handicap (10/3) at Haydock (10.2f, heavy) last time. More required to gain a first handicap success.

Fourteen runs since last win in 2021. In frame on all-weather first 3 starts this year, but reportedly bled when last of 10 in handicap at Lingfield (10f, AW, 4/1) in March. First run for yard after leaving Lee Carter.

Without a win this season but, after a couple of below-par efforts, bounced back to form when third of 9 in handicap (9/2) at this C&D (good to firm, won corresponding event in 2022) 10 days ago. Shortlisted.

Forecasts

Pearl Eye (10/3), Three Yorkshiremen (10/3), Hale End (4/1), Poet's Dawn (7/1), Strangerontheshore (15/2), Bobby's Blessing (12/1), Culcor (14/1), Urban Road (14/1), Soames Forsyte (33/1), Sense Of Worth (40/1)

16:35 Beverley - 27 August 2023 - Racecard - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

PEARL EYE has shown improved form this year, winning twice at Haydock and producing a good effort when third there 15 days ago, so he is taken to add to his tally in his current mood. The 3-y-o can see off the challenge of Hale End, who is yet to finish out of the frame for his current yard, while Strangerontheshore also merits consideration.
