Verdict

There are a couple of old hands who could go well here including Stepper Point, a former Group 2 winner who was placed behind Sole Power in the 2015 King's Stand at Royal Ascot. He has lost his way over the past couple of years but he is responding to his gradually lowering handicap rating and could go well here off a career-low mark. He's vulnerable to a younger, improving type in this though and SECRETFACT fits the bill. This gelding has been improving at a rate of knots since last summer, having gone up 25lb since August, and though a 6lb rise for a short-head victory at Bath last time may seem harsh he and the runner-up were clear of the third and he raced keenly in the early stages suggesting that there could be even more to come. The consistent Dark Shot could prove third-best.
  1. Secretfact
  2. Stepper Point
  3. Dark Shot
