Verdict

A big field in which SECRET SYMPHONY stands out. Sylvester Kirk's colt finished clear of the remainder when runner-up to hot favourite Glass Office at Kempton earlier this month and none of today's rivals can match that level of form. Mystical Man and Twilight Pearl have not shown any real progress over the minimum trip so far but may finish closer stretching out an extra furlong here while Marabout had shown a glimpse of promise on his debut only to disappoint at Thirsk last time. Better is expected from Garmelow Girl in due course and Laudate Dominum, a half-sister to recent winning stablemate Sunny Side Up, looks a newcomer to note along with Spirit Of Rio.
