This looks a tight contest which may be determined by the extent to which BEMPTON CLIFFS can continue to resist the attentions of the handicapper. The gelding sluiced up over course and distance in late March and followed up last month off a 10lb higher mark. He's up another 7lb for that but seems to like it around here and is worth following for the three-timer. Getaway Jewel has been better the last twice but probably needs to improve again whereas it appears the Morgan team are keen to put Irish bumper winner, Wheres Maud Gone, over fences as soon as possible. She's unexposed and open to progress. Nefyn Point and Rann Of Kutch are not ruled out.
