Forecasts

Slaney Tide (10/3), Secret Sauce (10/3), Notturno (7/2), Timeless Piece (4/1), Not Even Maybe (11/1), Real History (16/1), Fuli (18/1), Game Eagle (20/1), Apprentice (25/1), Show No Fear (25/1), Bride Tree (33/1), Thats Jet (40/1), Monnow Valley (100/1)

SECRET SAUCE showed improved form when second on his handicap bow at Bellewstown on his return 2 weeks ago despite taking a while to get going and can go one place better with this longer trip to his advantage. Handicap-debutants Real History and Notturno head the dangers.
