Verdict

Hamoody beat Secret Missile a length over track and trip last month but the latter re-opposes on better terms. Clear Praise scored over 6f here before breaking a blood vessel on his latest start and finishing tailed off. An apprentice's allowance puts Volito back on a winning mark, but he hasn't won on Turf since 2011, so the vote goes to SECRET MILLIONAIRE. The latter went close in better company at Goodwood last time with Fair Value back in fourth and is the one to beat if producing a similar effort.
