Forecasts

Verdict

SECRET TRIX took his form up a level when opening his account at Fakenham and is weighted to go in again raised just 3 lb for that success. William Philo shouldn't be underestimated reverted to hurdles off a handy-looking mark while Oliver's Island and Shot Boii must enter calculations too in an open handicap.

  1. SECRET TRIX
  2. WILLIAM PHILO
  3. OLIVER'S ISLAND (IRE)
