EASTERN HILLS has yet to win this year but scored four times on the Fibresand in 2011. Back on a winning mark and posting a better effort at Wolverhampton last month, Alan McCabe's charge can return to winning ways. Giorgio's Dragon and Bold Marc finished runners-up on their latest starts but both were beaten a long way and recent C&D winner No Dominion makes more appeal. Bonnie Prince Blue is a multiple course winner but hasn't looked the force of old this season while Riczar has struggled since being raised a harsh 16lb for winning her maiden on this surface.
