Verdict

Manouche, Musical Guest and Secret Assassin look the three to concentrate on here and the vote is given to Manouche. The selection has not been beaten far on each of his last three starts and this lightly-raced 2-year-old certainly deserves to get his head in front. He seems to be going the right way and we are prepared to give him another chance. Musical Guest has plenty in his favour as he won well last time and this step-up to 7f should see him in an even better light. However, he has a penalty for his latest success and that may just find him out. Secret Assassin finished second behind Citelle over today's course and distance when he was reported to have lost a shoe. However, he does not appear to be the most straightforward and for that reason we will oppose him on this occasion. High Class Problem has shown some ability but he can't be backed at present as his yard are out of form, and for the winner we will return to Manouche.
