Verdict

MULLENBEG (NAP) was a very useful performer in bumpers last season, winning a Listed race at Cheltenham in January. She could be a decent recruit to the hurdling ranks and may be too good for Newton Abbot winner Nifty Getaway in receipt of 7lb if her jumping is up to scratch. Autumn Return has won a point and a bumper so adds to the interest while Kingston Sunflower has placed in her last two starts over timber, though lacks the scope of the others.
