Veiled Secret will be all the rage turned out under a penalty for last week's Yarmouth romp. Whilst his chance is a clear and obvious one, he's unlikely to offer much in the way of any value, especially with the fear that he'll be taken on for the lead in this stronger contest. Whilst he could simply prove to be well in front of the handicapper, there is viable opposition against him with fairly reasonable form. The likes of Sternrubin , Catcher On The Go and Mobait are all proven dual purpose winners as is the selection NABHAN who has been rock solid at this track of late.
