8/1
There shouldn't be much between HIDDEN HISTORY and Champagne Twist, with the latter meeting Dan Skelton's charge on 2 lb better terms compared to when third to that rival (beaten two lengths) at Aintree where they were both making their chase debuts. Champagne Twist's finest hour over hurdles came at this course and he is greatly respected, but Hidden History is proving most progressive for this yard and he is taken to strike again. Kelce and chase debutant Tommy The Tank are others with claims.

About The Selections

Dave Nevison

Hidden History Harry Skelton rode this young stayer to perfection when he won on his chasing debut at Aintree recently and I fancy Hidden History has plenty of upside in him

Race Hints

Specific Pace Hint: Kelce might not get things all its own way near the head of affairs but shouldn’t be held back by that alone: The forecast decent pace still isn’t likely to sway the advantage towards those usually ridden further back such as is Hidden History.
Individual Price Hint: Java Point traded at 10% or less of Betfair SP and 50% or less of Betfair SP on 2 of its last 5 starts.
