New King will likely improve on January’s third at Chelmsford but stablemate PRIVATE SECRETARY made a winning return over today’s trip at Redcar earlier in the month. Further progress is expected now handicapping and he can go in again with Frankie taking over the reins. Layaleena struggled in the Fillies’ Mile at Newmarket when last in action and steps up in trip along with Big Baby Bull, who ended last year with a victory over a mile at Doncaster. But Noble Lineage made a winning handicap debut upped in trip at Wolverhampton and is preferred to Prince Of Harts with Ryan Moore on board today. The maiden winner Zuba is preferred to James Park Woods of the remainder.
