A very competitive classified event that may fall to Secret Flame, with Straw Bear and Kibryaa put forward as the main dangers. Willie Haggas's filly has steadily improved over the summer and put up a tremendous display to beat stable-mate Just Dance Me by five lengths at Hamilton. This is a step up in class but this daughter of Machiavellian should be up to the task. Straw Bear hasn't raced since winning a Woverhampton maiden back in September, but being from the in form Sir Mark Prescott yard, has to be respected. Kybryaa has had the misfortune to come up against two very progressive handicappers recently, Burley Flame and Majorca, once again he may find one or two just too good. Of the rest Strawberry Fair has let down supporters recently but obviously has ability, however Secret Flame looks a safer proposition and is given the vote.
