Verdict
NEFYN POINT returned a losing favourite over track and trip last week having cruised into contention approaching the last. He could only manage fourth on the run-in but gets another chance in this reunited with Brian Hughes having won under the latter at Sedgefield earlier. Snowed In finished behind the selection here last time but Monfass is looking to exploit a slide down the weights and was placed at Kelso on his penultimate start. Never Be Enough is dropped in class and it would be no surprise to see better efforts form the likes of Perfect City and Painted Cliffs with the latter handicapping for the first time.
