Recent course novice winner GOLDEN POINT has the potential for better again now handicapping over a trip which looks sure to suit. Topkapi Star will be a danger if the cheekpieces work as well a second time, while Nick Alexander's Half Track was a little out of his pay grade in a 0-130 at Haydock last time and had been a good second at Carlisle prior to that.
