Enjoyed a profitable campaign last year - including registering a couple of C&D wins during the summer. Took a hike in the ratings as a result but it would be harsh to say he'd hit the wall under his his revised mark on his reappearance at Windsor (met trouble in running so probably better than his finishing position suggests). Interesting contender and worthy of consideration.

Managed to win a handicap at Hamilton for his former yard but was soon in the wilderness after reassessment. Has a feasibly good chance from his lowest career mark on turf but lacks consistency and notable that his new connections are already opting to use headgear in an attempt to revive his fortunes.

Best form has been posted on the AW and has a bit to prove after failing to make an impact in a handful of starts in modest company of late. However, she has responded well in cheekpieces in the past, so no surprise to see her up the ante if the blinkers have the same effect.

Won a couple of low-grade handicaps on the AW since the turn of the year but this is a lot tougher and he has a lot to find on these terms.

In good form lately but its up in class here and has only been placed once in four previous attempts over C&D and find at least one to two have his measure at this slightly higher level.

Verdict

This may be set up for SECRETFACT to sound a timely reminder about Malcolm Saunders' knack of getting the best out of his sprinters. The four-year-old met trouble in running on his reappearance and is much better than his finishing position would have you believe. He had previously been progressive and has been found a decent opportunity to prove himself still capable. Dodgy Bob is on an attractive mark if he can turn back the clock and is respected, while Frank The Barber is up in grade but arrives in better form than most of the others.
