Race Tip

SECRET DES DIEUX (1) arrives off the back of a sixth place finish in a much better contest at Cheltenham in January. That is the best form in this contest and should be able to get back on track. HYPOTENUS (2) was a good winner at Taunton three starts ago and held his form the next time. Struggled in better company three weeks ago and should make his mark. EPINEPHRINE (3) well held when third at Hereford three and a half weeks ago. She is yet to show the same form as her win at Kempton in February last year but the stable have had winners recently and a turn around in form can't be ruled out in this small field.
