Intriguing sprint handicap with a small field. The in-form CLEARPOINT (1) completed a hat-trick when running out a smooth winner of a 5f handicap at Wolverhampton in November. This Simon Hodgson five-year-old is two from three over course and distance and might have what it takes to land the four-timer from a kind draw in gate two. BALDOMERO (2) also arrives having landed a decent handicap at Wolverhampton (5f) recently and rates a major player. Bottom weight ALMATY STAR (5) posted two good efforts over 5f at Chelmsford this month and cannot be dismissed as a previous course and distance winner. FIDELIUS (4) rounds out the shortlist.
