Verdict

It's getting a little towards last chance saloon for SECRET INVESTOR already but there's no doubting he has the form to win this and it once again looks a very suitable opportunity to score. Peculiar Places has some good bumper form to his name and his hurdles debut is probably best forgotten about - he must be better than that and he can show it here. Dakkar Collonges, My Charity and Marley Firth can all throw down challenges for places.
