In depth
Verdict
SECRET BID was only fourth at Kempton on his debut but was beaten less than a length in a bunch finish and normal progress can see him off the mark. Thunderous Love debuted at the same Kempton fixture and can finish closer while Duely Spiced finished runner-up at Lingfield but was a long way behind the winner. A hood is fitted to Epsom fourth Compton Bay while both Emirates Angel and Miguel steps up in trip.
