HIDDEN HISTORY got the better of Aintree handicap winner Wellington Arch at Uttoxeter last time and a 7 lb rise shouldn't be enough to stop him from following up granted he copes with the quicker conditions. Florida Dreams rarely runs a poor race and should be in the mix once again, with the likeable novice Bold Light also shortlisted having gone up 4 lb for his latest Kelso success.
