Forecasts

Private Secretary (11/10), Persian Moon (4/1), Fifth Position (7/1), Alfaatik (7/1), Duckett's Grove (9/1), Kaloor (14/1), Spanish Mission (20/1)

Private Secretary has plenty going for him and is a rapid improver this season, with his tuned-in trainer already looking towards Royal Ascot next month. He is well worthy of stepping into this grade and looks sure go well, but is forecast to be short in the betting. FIFTH POSITION is also upwardly mobile, having beaten off the well-regarded Space Blues at Nottingham last time (franked form since). Roger Varian's charge might well take another scalp here. Alfaatik has been quite green to date but his Classic Trial run had plenty promise near the end and he's respected alongside another improver in Duckett's Grove.
