Pundit pick: Secrecies Of Stone

Secrecies Of Stone is our selection, topping this maximum field of eighteen on our figures despite a stop-start recent sequence dominated by pulled-up efforts. Experience over today's going and a workable turnaround support the case, though the profile is far from convincing on bare form. He's only narrowly ahead of Midnight Moonshine on our figures, with Shantou Show and North Of Nashville both capable of running into the finish too. Confidence in the selection is low, with little solid recent form separating the leading contenders.
