In depth

Verdict

GODREVY POINT is well clear of the others with a handicap rating having found one too good at Doncaster the last twice. He finished behind the unbeaten Skytastic last time and this extra distance should suit in what looks a weak maiden. Bolintlea had shown promise in bumpers before well beaten on her hurdling bow while Kind Witness has placed over fences since last racing over timber. Rachel Louise may prove best of the rest.
