Verdict
Minionette showed a little more last time and is just the sort that Alan Swinbank could eke out further improvement from. Zephyr finished in mid-division at Redcar on Monday which was an improvement on recent efforts but still has plenty to do whilst Shamouti has offered no encouragement of late. Zanouska landed a muddling Lingfield maiden in March but is far from bombproof and COMPANY SECRETARY is preferred. The American-bred colt has been much- improved for the application of headgear the last twice and seems sure to appreciate this step-up in trip, with Graham Lee an excellent booking for Jo Hughes.
