SECRET DES DIEUX (5) seeks a hat-trick after a pair of victories at Hereford and this venue scoring by 7.5L. Has looked impressive so far but is now on handicap debut. Main pick. BLUEGRASS (6) also seeks a three-timer after wins at this track and a 4.5L success at Huntingdon. Stepped up in trip but holds good form. Dangerous. GODOT (9) stayed on strongly for first place as he won by a neck at Lingfield. Well-weighted and looks to be competitive again. BALBOA (3) is not discounted after placing in the G2 Finale Juvenile Novices Hurdle at Chepstow in 2023. Key player.
