BEST SECRET (1) was short of room attempting to make his challenge in a very competitive 1m2f handicap at Royal Ascot. The French raider came home strongly to finish third on that occasion. May prove capable of defying top weight. PAROLE D’ORO (7) steps up to 1m2f for the first time under Ryan Moore following a near miss at Newmarket (July) last outing. MARHABA GHAIYYATH (4) encountered an unexposed performer when runner-up tackling this trip in a tough handicap at Newmarket (July) recently. Respect. Lightly raced Ffos Las maiden winner HIGH DEGREE (9) could have plenty more to offer raised to 1m2f making handicap debut for a yard in fine form.
