Verdict
Miss Harmony won over track and trip with a bit in hand but is penalised. Beautiful Secret failed to show the improvement expected when third at Ascot though still has a chance on that effort but ETERNAL LOVE makes most appeal. The latter was beaten by only a head at Kempton on her debut and that looks stronger form than Victoria Grove’s fourth at Thirsk. Loquace is more exposed but Invasive is a likely improver and the newcomer Safayn is preferred to Dawhay.
