Doctor Hilary improved for the recent return to Polytrack and Liberty Trail got back to winning ways at Wolverhampton last month. Nacho Libre is also worthy of consideration but a chance is taken that KATY'S SECRET is up to winning this on her comeback. Something was clearly amiss on her last start in June but she had shown willing when scoring at Southwell before that and the Mind Games filly has the potential to go on to better things.
