Half-brother to Big Orange. Form of third in 6f Newbury maiden last July worked out really well and he can't have been right when last of 6 in Newmarket nursery a month later. Left Michael Bell after.

220,000 gns Dark Angel colt. Unseated early on Ascot debut last summer so was effectively having his first start when just under 3 lengths fourth in 7f Newmarket maiden 19 days ago. Should progress.

18/1, eighth of 9 in maiden at Newbury (1m, good) on debut 14 days ago. State Secretary has to be considered the yard's first string unless the betting hints otherwise.

Sixties Icon colt. Dam 1½m winner out of useful 1¼m winner (stayed 1½m) Kaylianni. Bred for further and likely he's best watched on debut.

Plenty of promise when runner-up over 7f on AW at Kempton and Chelmsford 6 months apart. Remains open to improvement and the one to beat if as good on turf.

Forecasts

Hamoudi (5/4), State Secretary (11/4), Aesthete (3/1), Walls of Kano (12/1), Colden's Passion (14/1), Power Em (33/1), Professor Calculus (40/1), Sisterandbrother (40/1), Emanate (300/1)

Verdict

STATE SECRETARY has finished runner-up in a couple of outings on AW and is selected to go one better now switching to the grass. Promising Newmarket fourth Hamoudi rates the chief threat ahead of Aesthete, who has joined Ralph Beckett since last seen.

  1. STATE SECRETARY (IRE)
  2. HAMOUDI
  3. AESTHETE
