Race Tip

HILTON (2) had been in great form winning three on end before just missing last time when runner-up over 6f at this track. Rates highly and can atone. CRUNCHY NUT (5) has scored at his last two starts, most recently by a nose over 7f at this track. That continued the solid form this campaign, with three wins from six runs. Leading player again. VILLEINS (1) is returning from a lay-off of 13 months. Finished fourth at Bunbury over 1m1/2f at the first run last prep. Now with a new trainer Helen Harding. Solid top-three hope. MUNGO JERRY (3) was unplaced two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 6f at this track, beaten 8 lengths into 11th. No surprise to see him in the mix.
