Verdict
SECRET TALE is going the right way judged on her recent second at Goodwood. She finished clear of the rest and that looks stronger form than Field Of Vision's placed effort at Brighton last week. Sakhee's Jem had gone close on the all-weather in April but struggled in Listed company at York last time and Ground Control has yet to threaten. Roberto Lopez is speedily-bred and preferred to fellow newcomer Becca Campbell.
