FormscanBy Tom Weekes - Race conditions meant this was always going to be a very weak contest and NO SECRETS HERE might prove good enough having shown some promise at Killarney latest. He finished second in two soft ground point to points last season and while was well held in two subsequent bumpers, performed much better on his hurdles debut recently when staying on from the back for a never nearer sixth. He seems ground-versatile and provided he progresses from Killarney, should get involved here. Artical Eleven himself won a point to point in May 2016 and seems to show a liking for good ground. He was well held at Tipperary latest but should be capable of winning at this level. Champion Owner Michael O’Leary provoked the ire of some in his description of his Cheltenham winner Champagne Classic as "probably the worst horse we own” but could again be revising that list if his runner here - Monastic, fails to win. He represents a top trainer and while he did run ok-ish on occasions in the past, he needs to improve to win here. Karkadann also represents a leading yard but has yet to show worthwhile form.
