SECRET HANDSHEIKH was a good second on his fibresand debut over C&D last month, finishing in front of a subsequent winner, so should go well again off 1 lb lower. Impeach took a leap forward when runner-up on his handicap bow at Kempton and is another to consider, while Driftwood seemingly showed big improvement when second in a novice here on Sunday and could be 'well-in' if taking her chance.
