Verdict

Kitty Fisher bumped into the thriving Sheneededtherun on return from a five-month absence at Newcastle in November, while Lucinda Russell's The Road Home needs to leave her more recent form behind in order to play a significant role. However, there's been no stopping the versatile SKYHILL in recent weeks and months. Having readily completed the hat-trick in testing conditions at Ayr (3m) it would take a brave form analyst to state that the winning run is about to come to an abrupt end. Despite a 12lb weights rise he's still rated sub-100, so Alison Hamilton's fast-improving seven-year-old is strongly fancied to make it 3-4 over fences.
