      Verdict

      Miquelon found only a subsequent handicap winner too good at Wetherby on his reappearance while Miss Scaletta ran well for fourth at Newbury on her debut. Motawaajed is a likely improver while Secret Moment has been gelded since last in action with Oisin Murphy’s presence suggesting he’s preferred to stablemate Royal Partnership. Hot Day ran well on the all-weather at Deauville when last seen while DINOO wasn’t disgraced when fifth in last year’s Group 2 Solario Stakes at Sandown. He’s switched to Roger Varian’s yard since and is taken to make a winning return.
