We re-derive the secular theory for Trojan-type motion from Morais (\cite{morais}) using a Hamiltonian formulation and show how this methodology allows us to include the effect of an oblate central mass and the secular perturbations from additional bodies in a rigorous way. As an application of this work we locate secular resonances inside the co-orbital regions of the uranian satellites and the planets, and show that these are in good agreement with the behaviour observed in numerical integrations.
