Welsh National - Secret Reprieve 6/1 - I haven't trawled the form yet but went in with a lumpy win bet this morning. The stable is flying (Coole Cody and Annsam the last two Saturdays) and there has to be a fair chance the horse will have improved a fair bit since last season. I read a while back that they were keen to preserve his mark but presume they would have preferred to get a run into him. He's only 6lbs higher than last year but travelled like the winner throughout the final circuit and wasn't stopped by loosening tack from two out. That form itself is pretty sound. He was backed into 5/2f last year and the same could well happen again so I wanted onside at this stage.
