Verdict

In what looks a moderate contest a chance is taken on point-to-point winner MIDNIGHT QUEEN here. The selection has been well beaten on soft or heavy ground in three starts for this stable over shorter distances but can claim this stepping up in trip and on what is likely to be a sounder surface here (won her point-to-point on good-to-soft 11 months ago). Of the remainder Steel Native has run well over C&D in the past and can claim second while the maiden Guiting Power is of interest receiving weight from all of his rivals today.
  1. Midnight Queen
  2. Steel Native
  3. Guiting Power
