Verdict

The obvious form choice here is Dan Tucker who is selected to beat My Secrets and Homes By Woodford. The selection showed little on the turf last summer but returned to the track with an impressive handicap win on the all-weather. He followed next time on the turf at Southwell, despite running very green. He could be capable of a lot more and is given a confident vote here. Homes By Woodford has done most of his running on the all-weather and was a game winner at Wolverhampton last time. This fast ground is a bit of a concern but he should still be involved in the finish. My Secrets has earned top-weight here with some smart juvenile form and will lack nothing in fitness. Meanwhile Madaarek is likely to show better form now he is handicapped. Pret A Porter is another to consider for the places, but Dan Tucker comes here at the top of his game and cannot be opposed.
