Formscan - GOLDEN POINT has an excellent record here, with two wins from three appearances, and following an acceptable second in a better race at Perth on her first start in seven months, she should prove hard to beat. Stable companion Wal Buck's looks a huge danger after finishing second over 3m at Hexham, with Jack Power's 5lb claim a bonus. The upped-in-class Jamesieconn, looking for his sixth success over fences, is the pick for third.
