Verdict

It could be worth chancing HILL STATION, who admittedly possesses a rather chequered profile but he put in a good shift when fourth on the Flat at Kempton recently and has been eased 5 lb in the weights since his latest start in this sphere. Nadim has been in fine form this summer and, likely to benefit from the fitting of a visor, he is feared most ahead of Fort de L'Ocean.
