Sensational Secret made much of the running on her debut over Beverley's stiff 5f and though passed by the well supported Compel showed enough to suggest she'll be difficult to beat here. Hope Cove also made the running over this trip at Doncaster and didn't succumb until the final furlong so he's likely to be there at the finish. TEBA MATEBA was always in the firing line before fading close home over 7f at Wetherby and with that under his belt can take this for David O'Meara. Kingthistle made an encouraging start at Beverley while Bint Kodiac and Dance Alone are newcomers to note in a better than normal maiden for the track in which experience may count on the rain-softened ground.
