Verdict

NIGHT SECRET, runner-up on soft ground at Doncaster in November, didn't return to action until earlier this month when making a successful handicap debut on fast going at Windsor. She only won by a neck so the assessor has raised her just 3lb which doesn't look enough to prevent a double. Treasure Me has only won on the all-weather but was beaten just a length in a Nottingham Listed contest on soft ground last month before finding heavy going against her at Haydock. Be Like Me got to the front in the final furlong at Chester but just couldn't hold off Probability, who had beaten her 3l at Kempton in April, so she looks on the upgrade. Restless Rosie has been beaten six times since scoring at Yarmouth a year ago though is still 3lb higher but Firelight has been competing at a much higher level since completing a double when successful over this course and distance last summer and will appreciate the drop in class.
