Forecasts

Early Du Lemo (11/8), Midnight Chill (9/2), New Millennium (5/1), Trigger Nichol (6/1), Windspiel (9/1), Otter Moon (9/1), Lord Marmaduke (20/1)

Midnight Chill arrives in good form and should take a bit of beating, but he does have it to prove on faster ground and the suggestion is to side with TRIGGER NICHOL on his chase debut. In good hands, he looks likely to be better suited to chasing than hurdling, where he is a maiden, albeit having shown some promise. Early Du Lemo is feared if on-song, while New Millennium and Otter Moon can't be ruled out.
