Secret Moment won here last autumn though hasn’t raced since June while Manhattanville placed over track and trip last time. Freedom And Wheat ran well again at Windsor though still looks high enough in the weights while Jilly Cooper won at Lingfield before a below par effort at Musselburgh. GOLDEN MAYFLOWER (NAP) has been set stiff tasks in handicaps so far but will find this easier and with improvement expected on her second start after wind surgery, she gets the vote to come out best.
