Verdict

Plenty of these horses have stamina to prove, and Veiled Secret is no exception. However, given the time tested methods of his shrewd trainer, significant improvement is expected on his handicap debut as he steps up sharply in trip. La Vie En Rose is more consistent than most, whilst Steel Helmet should be suited by this trip on pedigree in the first time visor. However, BREAKWATER BAY ran well enough at Beverley last week, and that improved showing provided hope for the future and he might be better suited by this less sapping 1m4f test today.
