      In depth

      Verdict

      HIDDEN IDENTITY beat Shesha Bear by three lengths over C&D two weeks ago with Social Realism a well-beaten fifth. That was the runner-up's debut over hurdles and he's 7lb better off today but we still fancy Tim Vaughan's charge to uphold the form as he's proven on heavy ground. The remainder will struggle to get involved on what they've shown so far.
