Verdict

Home Secretary advertised his wellbeing with an excellent run here in April and went one better five days later for which he's been raised 5lb. Runner-up THE BLACK DEVIL has a 4lb pull and, as that was only his sixth start, he's entitled to reverse the form with the winner and is given the nod. Blue Ridge Lane was raised 8lb for his victory in February and has struggled to make an impact subsequently. Magical Moon, who has been hurdling and finished with a flourish over this trip here last time, can get into the frame though should be winning soon over further.
