In depth

Verdict

Kastini never threatened despite finishing third at Newbury last time but is dropping down a grade today while Sugar Coated ran well for fifth at Beverley on her handicap debut and may also figure. Dalaway was placed at Bath before disappointing last time and Uncle Bernie is preferred to the more exposed Yarmouth winner Handsome Stranger. But FIRST SECRETARY gets a speculative vote in a poor handicap as the Nayef filly is a half-sister to the smart Listed winner Gallipot and should improve for the step up to middle-distances.
