SKYHILL (NAP) has really found his form and was always travelling easily when completing a hat-trick at Ayr. He's been hit with a 12lb rise but this doesn't look any better and a four-timer beckons. Westend Theatre looked out on his feet when scoring at Hexham and though given a month off weakened quickly here a couple of weeks ago after leading for a long way. Eagle Ridge is still a maiden after 14 starts and ran poorly at Musselburgh last time while Kitty Fisher, who was in good form last summer, is 10lb higher than her latest victory.
