Verdict

Secret Victory landed the odds in a novice race at Kempton last month and the Godolphin charge will likely prove popular now handicapping. But AMAYSMONT (NAP) continued his good progress with a convincing win over course and distance last time and another bold bid is expected raised only 4lb. Variyann came up short at Southwell having won at Kempton earlier while Red Bond has returned a losing favourite the last twice now and is closely matched with De Vegas Kid on earlier running at Wolverhampton. Fighting Temeraire has done all his winning over shorter trips so far and Nonios remains out of form.
