Verdict

Sir Billy Wright won over course and distance last week but steps up a grade under a penalty. Secret Asset is still capable of good performances but 6f is his trip nowadays. The handicapper is offering Flashy Queen some light at the end of the tunnel but CRUISE TOTHELIMIT is also looking well treated nowadays and has been running a little better than his form figures would suggest. He can get the better of Brighton third Ginzan, who has never won off a mark this high, and Ascot fourth Free Zone.
