Verdict

TOP SECRET represents a yard in terrific form and shaped as though ready for the step up to this trip when a strong-finishing second over 7f at Newmarket a fortnight ago. He is marginally preferred to Walhaan, who has slipped to a potentially handy mark and there were positives to glean form his latest effort. Unexposed handicap debutant Neenee's Choice and Willyorwon't He are others to consider.
