    Verdict

    At the time of writing Coconut Moon is down to run at Warwick on Sunday, if he does take part here he will be a threat to all, however we will give the vote Our Little Secret with Hypnosis, Mystery Pips and Champagne Cracker also expected to run well. It pays to follow a filly in form and Our Little Secret is certainly at the top of her game. She has comfortably landed handicaps at Ripon and Catterick and there looks to be plenty more in the locker. Mystery Pips has had a terrific month, winning races at Yarmouth and Wolverhampton, before running with credit in two subsequent races. She is obviously holding her form well and will be hard to keep out of the frame. Champagne Cracker is not the most consistent but has strong claims on the pick of her form. If on a going day she could get involved in the finish. The other one we like the look of is Hypnosis, a recent Catterick winner who is still at the right end of the handicap. All in all a very open contest, but Our Little Secret has a great chance of making it three wins in a row.
