In excellent form over fences since undergoing a second breathing operation, scoring at Wincanton (2m4f) in February before a clear second of seven over that C&D last month; up 2lb but that form is working out well so he's a big player.

Comment

Won at Wincanton before clear second there last month; up 2lb but form franked; big player

Quotes

"I do feel sorry for Paul O'Brien as he's always won on Universal Secret, but Kielan gave him a fantastic ride. When I was walking in, Kielan said, I didn't want to tell you, but that's the first winner I've had in 51 rides round here, and I said, Oh right, lovely. It was really wonderful because all the jockeys came out and clapped him. That's as nice as just us winning and that's proper friendship. He's a dude of a horse and just completely different now. I was pretty confident he would be in the top three, but to do it with ease means we've got something to play with now. - Helen Nelmes, trainer."

"Universal Secret is a big baby. He's growing all the time and is a chaser, but we knew he'd win a hurdle race. We won't do anything fancy but he'll go chasing next season - Helen Nelmes, trainer."

Placed in points but yet to make the frame in six starts under rules, a well-held sixth in 3m handicap chase at Bangor last month; easy to look elsewhere.

Got off the mark over hurdles at Bangor (2m4f) in September; placed twice when sent chasing after but only sixth in 2m handicap at Musselburgh when last seen in November; could bounce back after a break though.

Comment

Placed in first two chases; below that form in November; needs to bounce back after break

Second in an Irish point but cut little ice in four runs over hurdles last season, beating only one on her handicap debut at Catterick (3m1f) in March; much more is required now going chasing with tongue-tie added.

Comment

Scored at Fakenham in April but she made mistakes when a remote third since

Quotes

"Annie Nail has been a fantastic little buy and is a really tough mare. I couldn't watch the race after the first circuit - the nerves got the better of me - but having watched the replay she travelled brilliantly and won well. She shaped encouragingly at Hereford on her first start for us and we were confident coming into this - Tracey Leeson, trainer."

Quotes

"\BKing Of Cong\P did it easy enough and really handled the conditions and the extra three furlongs. Terence's assistant Michael Browne said to jump him out in the first four and, if he was good enough, to take your chance. We didn't go too fast so it paid to be handy - Darragh Allen, rider, speaking to Racing TV."

Fair ex-French hurdler/chaser but yet to match that form for his current yard, undergoing breathing surgery before a well-held fourth of six in 2m1f handicap chase at Market Rasen last month; others appeal more.
