HAYDOCK 3.00 ... NORTHERN DARE 1 Pt @ 8/1 ... PEARLY WAY @ 25/1 E/W or Place Only

Northern Dare won over the minimum at Wolverhampton last season in Class4 1st time out, yet two previous runs in this grade on turf at this trip he had won at York, then just failed under a 6lb penalty here next outing off top weight when a 3Yr Old.
Has been running in higher grades since off marks in the low 90's with decent efforts last season in the Portland and Stewards Cup (Both Class2)
Now down to a mark of 80 is eligible to run at this level and is tried in 1st time blinkers today dropping into a Class4 on grass for only the 3rd time, and only 3rd run for Richard Fahey.
Won't mind any rain should it materialise and taking on opposition a Stone lower in the handicap than last few efforts this season.

Pearly Way would be a big threat to all if recapturing his form of previous years with Clive Cox, as he is now 19lb lower than winning the Stewards Sprint at Goodwood, his last success in 2008.
Has 6lb in hand of Legal Eagle from their last encounter in May, and at 3 times the price could be a value Win/Place bet on the exchanges.
