Verdict
Secret Art ran well at Kempton on his reappearance but was well beaten at Newmarket last week when GLORY AWAITS finished a respectable fourth in Class 2 company. This is easier and David Simcock’s charge can reverse earlier running here with Lacan, who also beat Samphire Coast over track and trip last month. The former should make another bold bid but Bint Dandy looks to be treading water off her current mark and Pearl Spectre remains 6lb higher than when scoring at Southwell earlier this month.
