FormscanBy Mark Nunan - SECRET SEA showed ability in a Navan handicap on the Flat last year when with John Oxx, and the Sea The Stars filly can make a winning handicap debut over hurdles. She was just touched off in a mares’ maiden at Wexford last time and, up 2lb for that, she will benefit from the very useful 7lb allowance that Jack Foley can claim. Master Cornwall possibly found the ground too soft last time and is better judged on his third at Tramore in April. Like the selection, he’s only a four-year-old and is open to improvement. Fassbender is more exposed but ran his best race so far when caught close home at Tipperary. That was on the back of a four-month absence and, off a 3lb higher mark, he has to come into calculations.
