Forecasts

Big Shanghai (11/4), Midnight It Is (10/3), Mick Leo (4/1), Famous Bridge (5/1), Whiskeywealth (7/1), Green Vault (14/1), Time Gents (16/1), Call Colman (25/1), So Be It (33/1)

Verdict

MIDNIGHT IT IS cost £60,000 after showing plenty (leading when fell two out) in a point and he's worth chancing to make a successful transition to Rules starting out for a shrewd yard. Big Shanghai also showed ability between the flags, so he's considered along with the well-bred Famous Bridge.

  1. MIDNIGHT IT IS
  2. BIG SHANGHAI (IRE)
  3. FAMOUS BRIDGE (IRE)
