Race preview
A change of scenery worked just the trick for HIDDEN HISTORY when making a winning stable bow at Uttoxeter last month. An 7lb higher mark is unlikely the ceiling of the seven-year-old's ability and he's fancied to enhance Dan Skelton's bid for the trainer's championship. An improved bid is forecast from Della Casa Lunga reverting to a right-handed track and handicap company. The Champs Elysees' mare may serve the most resistance to the selection, while last year's winner of this contest Rambo T is the pick of the remainder.
