Verdict

Despite the fact he must carry a hefty 12st6lbs for stepping down slightly in grade, ONE NIGHT IN MILAN looks to hold outstanding claims of regaining the winning thread. This half-brother to Native River rarely runs a bad race, & he has gone down fighting the last twice. This looks a weaker contest strength-wise than either of those assignments. He can take his record over hurdles to 5-11. Mighty Thunder looks the obvious danger after producing a career-best to score in wildly impressive fashion. An 8lb rise demands more, but it is difficult to see him out of the frame. The Irish raider Fred The Foot is also considered as he was in good form when last seen over hurdles.
  1. One Night In Milan
  2. Mighty Thunder
  3. Fred The Foot
