    Verdict

    Claire's Secret was caught right on the line when well supported at Leicester and will be fancied to gain compensation here getting weight from all but one of her rivals. But MASONIC was only beaten half-a-length over course and distance before running in a valuable sales race over a trip too short at Newmarket and looks the one to beat. Both Winning Bid and Tigerfish would need to improve on what they've shown so far if they are to figure.
