Formscan  - A taking winner over C&D in July when making all, SECRET MISTRAL almost performed the same tactics at Chester last month over slightly further, only to be worn down late in the piece. Tony Carroll's mare should have too much for Brazilian Belle, who was unlucky when third at Musselburgh on Monday. Impressor and Our Absent Friends are capable of being in the shake-up as well.
