Equus Secretus⁶⁰

Age: 8| Weight: 11-2| J: David Bass| T: B Pauling| OR: 134| C| D

11/10

Promising 9L third in a handicap chase over 3m at Ludlow (soft) on his seasonal debut in December and finished a decent fifth over an extended 3m2f at Cheltenham (soft) subsequently. Leading contender dropping in distance.

Form: 2520-35

Lies About Milan²²

Age: 9| Weight: 11-2| J: P J Brennan| T: F O'Brien| OR: 128| BF| D

2/1

Placed in a couple of maiden hurdles since winning a point-to-point on his belated debut in that sphere in November. Beaten 8½L over this trip at Uttoxeter (heavy) last time out and is of interest on debut over fences.

Form: 122

Royale Pagaille⁴⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 11-2| J: Charlie Deutsch| T: Miss V Williams| OR: 137

11/4

Useful performer in France and returned from over a year off the track when finishing 9½L second in a match race over this trip at Chepstow (heavy) on stable debut in January. Strong claims once more.

Form: 6/F5F2-2

Forecasts

Equus Secretus (11/10), Lies About Milan (2/1), Royale Pagaille (11/4)

EQUUS SECRETUS is taken to get off the mark at the seventh time of asking over fences by registering a victory in this three runner beginners' event. The selection has the trip and ground to suit and he can get the better of Royale Pagaille who is making just his second start for this stable while third place can go to Lies About Milan who is making his debut over fences.
