Verdict

PASSING SECRETS has taken well to fences and arguably has the most potential in this field after just 2 starts in this sphere, so gets the nod. Maasai Warrior bounced back to form when third at Leicester and is on a handy mark if building on that, while En Coeur arrives on the back of a career-best win at Plumpton.
