In depth
Verdict
A claimer gets things underway and, in it, Tresor Secret is selected ahead of Carlton Scroop and High Hope. A repeat of his Wolverhampton handicap win two runs ago would make Carlton Scroop a big player as he drops to this grade for the first time. A repeat of his course and distance second two runs ago, also outside of claiming company, would give Tresor Secret a big chance too. Full Of Rest can't be ruled out if replicating a fair course and distance run of last Jume, while High Hope has proven that he can be competitive at this level and he too gets a mention. Missie Baileys gets similar comments and these, for us, look to be the leading players, with the selection being Tresor Secret.
