Secret Treaties scored over 7f here a week ago and carries 5lb extra. She’d earlier finished behind runner-up GHERKIN over course and distance and Stuart Kittows’ charge finally looks set to open his account. The selection also finished in front of Fard and last year’s winner Mercers last time though the latter is back on a winning mark while Passional may do better back on this surface having struggled at Southwell on her latest start.
