All going comes alike to Coverdale, who keeps defying the handicapper and beat Perfect Play a shade cosily at Ripon last month. Have Secret finished ahead of the mud-loving Royal Rhyme at Newbury in May while Killybegs Warrior, one of a trio of Charlie Johnston runners, held off Obelix at Newmarket last month. Silver Sword came up against a well-treated rival at Epsom in June and can confirm that running with Promoter. He got back to winning ways at Pontefract but the Kingman colt Alsakib could be worth opposing upped in trip and Garden Route will also have stamina to prove while Theoryofeverything is becoming expensive to follow. PERFUSE was only headed close home when fifth in the King George V Stakes over 1m4f at Ascot six weeks ago and he could be too strong for these in the finish if he gets a clear run.
