Peacocks Secret won a similar race here last March on good ground and has conditions in his favour but NOT THAT FUISSE was only beaten a neck in a Listed handicap at Ayr last April, form that would be easily good enough for this. Activial was once rated 151 over fences and showed he retains some ability when runner-up at Southwell but he's likely to start at restrictive odds while Chapelier has been badly out of form between the flags.
