Verdict
Sword Spirit missed the break on her belated debut at Doncaster last month so did well to finish fourth. Her paddocks value would be boosted by a victory and she shouldn’t be underestimated. SECRET VICTORY has only found one too good the last twice but is becoming expensive to follow and looked a little one-paced when making his all-weather debut on Tapeta. However, he may enjoy a fitness advantage over Amsby, who is having a first run since second at Lingfield in February.
