Off time: 16:56 | Winning time: 4m 23.9s

Wheres Maud Gone^p,t¹⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 11-9| J: Adam Wedge| T: L Morgan| OR: 95

7/4

Dual bumper winner who has been disappointing all 3 starts over hurdles but could be capable of better now venturing into handicaps over fences.

Form: 15/57-53

Nefyn Point²¹⁷

Age: 8| Weight: 11-3| J: Peter Kavanagh⁽⁵⁾| T: D McCain Jnr| OR: 89| D

9/2

Modest hurdles winner who ran respectably sent chasing at Stratford a year ago. Not in same form next 2 outings but it remains early days in this sphere and still merits consideration on return.

Form: 693/378-

Getaway Jewel¹²

Age: 8| Weight: 10-13| J: B S Hughes| T: Micky Hammond| OR: 85| D

3/1

Confirmed return to form when second in 5-runner handicap chase at Fakenham (16.3f, good) 12 days ago, finishing with running left. Thereabouts again with a repeat.

Form: 43PP-22

Rann Of Kutch⁴⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 10-4| J: Jack Hogan⁽⁷⁾| T: M E Sowersby| OR: 76

7/2

Produced best effort yet when runner-up in handicap chase over C&D 47 days ago from 14 lb out of the weights. Good claims of going one better if backing that up.

Form: PP444/2-

Silvretta Schwarz²⁵²

Age: 7| Weight: 10-2| J: Charlie Hammond| T: M Young| OR: 74

18/1

Poor maiden hurdler/chaser nowadays who dropped away alarmingly quickly at Worcester (20f) on final outing in September. Posted an improved effort prior to that but still has something to prove on return.

Form: 6P/6335-

Glacier Fox¹⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 10-2| J: Harriet Tucker⁽⁷⁾| T: M C Chapman| OR: 71

25/1

Poor maiden hurdler who has shown nothing in 4 starts over fences.

Form: 3864P-P

Forecasts

Wheres Maud Gone (7/4), Bempton Cliffs (2/1), Getaway Jewel (3/1), Rann Of Kutch (7/2), Nefyn Point (9/2), Silvretta Schwarz (18/1), Glacier Fox (25/1)

BEMPTON CLIFFS has taken extremely well to chasing and gets the nod to complete the hat-trick with the prospect of more to come. Rann of Kutch and Where's Maud Gone head the opposition in an interesting race for the grade.
