Skyhill (2/1), Asking For Answers (9/2), Pc Dixon (6/1), Mcginty's Dream (8/1), Walkin In The Rain (17/2), Veauce De Sivola (10/1), Smuggler's Stash (12/1), Oh No (12/1), Imperial Prince (12/1)

SKYHILL is in great form at the moment with success coming over hurdles and fences. He is bidding for a hat-trick of wins here and he can get that off just a 3lb higher position than his last run over hurdles. Veauce De Sivola is the biggest danger as he is running well himself at the moment with a victory coming two starts ago at Musselburgh, while Walking In The Rain may improve for this step up in trip so take the lightly-raced gelding to fill up the placings.
