HIDDEN was a decent second at Bangor in December and reproduced that form when a close-up third at Uttoxeter on his latest start. He looks the one to beat here if handling this better surface, though winning pointer Swift Arrow is certain to improve on his third at Ayr and the four-year-old White Fusion won't go down without a fight. Kent Street could also figure with Jonathan England claiming 7lb while Major Domo is probably open to further improvement and may be the pick of the remainder.
