Verdict
SECRET HINT (NAP) has been running well without success in tougher races than this. She had little chance up against higher rated horses in a conditions event at Wolverhampton last month and should find life easier today. Seychelloise has been running consistently well but is raised a further 8lb for winning over 6f here last time while Crystal Malt is upped in class after scoring over a mile at the track when a length ahead of Assault On Rome. Tempting showed a bit more last time and may prove best of the rest with more scope than most of these.
