Formscan  - HILL STATION went agonisingly close when he was pipped at the post over C&D last week and as he is due for a 4lb rise on that back of that effort, it can pay to keep the faith with the Dr Richard Newland and Jamie Insole-trained gelding. Sassified is feared the most after an encouraging return at Ffos Las 22 days ago, while Battle Of Omdurman also warrants respect after a creditable third on his seasonal debut at Worcester last month.
