        Verdict

        Tunky is weighted to beat the others with a handicap mark and has finished the closest of these with a close-up fifth at Chelmsford, though that was over 6f. Rock Bottom placed over the minimum trip at Lingfield without threatening the winner and Milldean Panther posted an improved effort at Windsor in October. Chillon Castle and Beg For Mercy are both related to winners and worth a second glance of the newcomers but JUNGLE SECRET is a half-sister to former stablemate and smart all-weather sprinter Alben Star among a host of other winners and it's Richard Fahey's filly that gets the nod.
