SECRET AMBITION beat Kimbear to land this on his reappearance a year ago and continued to perform with great credit in Group contests. The pair had another battle next time with the latter coming out on top. Both the winner and Thegreatcollection were put in their place by Capezzaano later but the latter is just as likely to finish last and can't be relied on. Salute The Soldier joined Fawzi Nass from Clive Cox and won two of his three starts, the latest a Group 3 by five lengths. His stable has been among the winners and he looks a major threat.
