Verdict

John Gosden won this with subsequent Listed winner Martlet last year so the $325,000 newcomer Rationality is worthy of consideration. But she looks to have SECRET SENSE to beat today given the latter went very close at Kempton in November. This extra distance should suit the half-sister to the high-class Secret Gesture and Ralph Beckett has been among the winners recently. Duchy was not beaten far at Windsor last year while Lady Blanco has a recent run at Wolverhampton under her belt and should be sharper for that.
