        Verdict

        Sexy Secret ended a long losing run when scoring at Yarmouth last month and Melabi went close at Beverley on his latest start. Caracas was beaten only a head over 1m6f at Nottingham and is another to consider along with ALBERT BOY. The latter never looked like catching the winner when runner-up over today’s trip at Doncaster last time but won off a higher mark over track and trip last season and Scott Dixon’s charge may prove good enough in a tight contest.
