SECRET MILLIONAIRE has got a great draw to work from today and Pat Morris's charge can defy the handicapper once again. Bohemian Melody is something of a standing dish around here though life has not been made easier by the imposition of a 5lb rise for a close up finish behind Kakatosi. Secret Witness has had more seconds of late that Oliver Twist. Mac's Power has often been well touted ahead some of the summer's big handicaps so a cursory watch of the market has to be advised. Novellen Lad has to be respected on a fair fifth to Hawkeyethenoo at York. Five Star Junior is probably a better type over five furlongs though Kieren Fallon remains aboard.
