HILLVIEW has improved since switched to handicaps, and was rightly awarded the race after finishing second over this C&D on his recent return from a five-month break. There's a good chance that this 6-y-os best days are still be ahead of him and a 5 lb rise looks manageable. Irish-import All Thumbs Up needs to improve, but that's entirely possible now that he ventures down the handicap route for his new yard. He is second choice ahead of Lemon T and Sermando.
