HILLWALK looked on a handy mark when runner-up on handicap bow at Chepstow, and he's fancied to go one better over this longer trip. Lightly-raced Coolkatie remains with potential for the excellent Skelton yard, though, and she's feared most, with Cinnodin and Good Boy Griff both deserving of an honourable mention.
