Formscan - Parliament Hill came good when winning at the second time of asking over fences and should remain competitive despite a 7lb rise in the ratings. However, the Olly Murphy-inmate will need to settle better if he wishes to see out this longer trip. NOTLONGTILLMAY made a fine start on both his stable and chasing debut when winning at Wetherby in November and, with improvement a distinct possibility over this extra distance, he makes the most appeal. Barrichello is still open to improvement in this sphere and may fend off Diamond State for the minor spoils.
