In depth
Verdict
Sue Alner had a big hand in MASTER MEDIC's four career successes over fences under Rules and the 12-year-old has been making hay between the flags since. He had more than 30 lengths in hand over Near The Water at Hursley Hambledon last month and should have no trouble confirming that form and extending his winning run here. Quedillac was beaten at odds-on in a three-runner race at the Devon And Somerset nine days ago while Extra Bold was all out to beat modest opposition last time, though still makes more appeal than Nautical Approach.
