Verdict

In first-time cheekpieces, BOOK OF SECRETS returned to form when runner-up at Southwell 19 days ago and he sets the standard in this contest. The 5-y-o can get the better of Moro Rock, who made the frame at this course on his hurdling debut, while John The Baptist could fare better now handicapping having had a wind op.

  1. BOOK OF SECRETS (IRE)
  2. MORO ROCK (IRE)
  3. JOHN THE BAPTIST (IRE)
