1st Secret Reprieve 7/2 - 80 2nd Truckers Lodge 9/1 - 60 3rd Ramses De Teillee 16/1 - 50 4th Captain Drake 25/1 - 45 4th Bobo Mac 18/1 - 45 Quite a tight little race for the minor places here but Secret Reprieve certainly sets the standard. He is 2/2 on heavy and although untested over this distance, he excelled over 3m on heavy here last time out and won very cosily. He looks to want a real test. Obviously he is up againts some seasoned warriors here who will not go down without a fight. He is 2/2 at Chepstow too both times on heavy. He is only 4lb higher than his last win here, and it will be interesting to see. He will need to jump better but has a perfect weight to carry in such testing conditions, and connections are in form. He could go very well. Truckers Lodge was 2nd in this last year, so this tells us 2 things, 1st is the ground isnt an issue and 2nd the distance isnt either. What does worry me is he was 139 last year and this year its 155. Last year he carried 10st 2lb and
