Forecasts

Hillview (11/10), Presenting Yeats (5/1), Thunderstruck (6/1), Starsky (15/2), No Fixed Charges (11/1), Canyon City (12/1), Apache Creek (14/1)

HILLVIEW comes here at the top of his game and a 6 lb rise for his easy Stratford success doesn't look sufficient to stop his completing a four-timer. In-form course scorer Starsky is next on the list ahead of Worcester runner-up Thunderstruck.
