Verdict

A case can be made for each of these, but this may go the way of a chase debutant. HIDDEN HISTORY was progressive over hurdles last season and narrowly gets the vote ahead of fellow point winner Champagne Twist, who would be dangerous if back to the form he showed as a novice hurdler. El Granjero looks the most solid of those with form over fences.

  1. HIDDEN HISTORY
  2. CHAMPAGNE TWIST (IRE)
  3. EL GRANJERO (IRE)
