San Pedro makes a quick reappearance after finishing third at Fontwell on Sunday but this may chiefly concern the two Olly Murphy runners. Dev Of Tara made little impact on his UK debut in October so SECRET TRIX looks the one to be on having followed up a win here in November with a close third over a similar trip at Uttoxeter. Shesupincourt has been knocking on the door but is now 0-12 in career starts.
