Hughie Morrison's SECRET SQUIRREL found only Nicky Henderson's highly-rated Jeriko du Reponet too good at Newbury last time so is taken to regain the winning thread at the chief expense of Paul Nicholls' Wincanton scorer Fire Flyer. Exeter victor Moorefields rates the pick of the rest for place purposes.
