Verdict

LAMANVER PIPPIN looked better than ever when a narrow third in a competitive event at Cheltenham on his return and is back at the scene of his latest victory, so he's a confident choice in first-time cheekpieces. The lightly-raced Secret Reprieve is an obvious danger and The Two Amigos should give it a good go from the front.

  1. LAMANVER PIPPIN
  2. SECRET REPRIEVE (IRE)
  3. THE TWO AMIGOS
