Verdict

Ken's Dream, Robe Chinoise and Sundrenched all have something to find on official BHB ratings so this is best left to the remaining trio of runners. Of them Tholjanah represents the stable of Marcus Tregoning that has been laid low with the cough recently and, with no apparent signs that the stable's representatives are back to their best, he is probably best ignored. A similar comment could also apply to Aidan O'Brien's Sorcerous although with less conviction as this son of Sadler's Wells did show winning form at Listowel recently. He remains open to improvement but may find Lady's Secret just too good. The daughter of Alzao has been highly tried of late and may appreciate this drop in class and, with plenty of stamina on the dam's side, the step up in trip.
