Verdict

MIDNIGHT MUSTANG has done the majority of his racing over 2¾m+ in recent seasons, but he left the strong impression that this drop in trip would be just the ticket when a back-to-form second over 22.7f here recently. Providing the blinkers work equally well at the second time of asking, he'll take plenty of stopping. Unexposed chasers Game In The Park and K'chou Du Pecos AA rate the main dangers.

  1. MIDNIGHT MUSTANG

  3. K'CHOU DU PECOS AA (FR)
