    Verdict

    This could turn out less competitive than it looks on paper. CAPTAIN SECRET has a 9lb hike to contend with but made all over track and trip last time for an impressive win. With more to come from the Botti filly she's preferred to Touch The Clouds, who landed a couple of plating races last month. Collateral form with the selection gives Exceeding Power plenty to find, despite arriving in fine form, while the maiden winner Queenie's Home will need to improve again to figure. Tautira is also facing a more difficult task than of late and the Fibresand debutant Searchlight could end up the biggest threat if taking to the surface.
