Off time: 14:05 | Winning time: 5m 39.24s

Midnight Tour⁴⁵

Age: 8| Weight: 11-4| J: Tom Cannon| T: A King| OR: 147| D

5/2

Four time winner from 13 starts over hurdles most recently in a Listed handicap at Cheltenham (good) last April. Disappointing off a mark of 147 last time out but has a bit in hand of her rivals on official ratings.

Form: 261-334

Jester Jet⁴⁵

Age: 8| Weight: 11-0| J: R T Dunne| T: T Lacey| OR: 133| D

7/1

Progressive mare winning four times since joining this yard including over 3m1f at Plumpton (good-to-soft) in December. Disappointing last time out however and returning from a break today.

Form: 13213P

Lamanver Odyssey^t⁵⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 11-0| J: Aidan Coleman| T: H Fry| OR: 126| D

7/1

Successful twice over hurdles most recently off a mark off 119 over an extended 2m5f at Wincanton (soft) on seasonal debut in November. Struggling when falling subsequently and likely needs to improve if she's to take this contest.

Form: 8120-1F

Loves Destination⁴⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 11-0| J: M Goldstein| T: C Gordon| OR: 119| D

33/1

Victorious four times over hurdles at up to an extended 2m5f. Ground and trip should both suit but has a fair bit to find with the principals on official ratings.

Form: P71-623

Mariah's Legend³²

Age: 6| Weight: 11-0| J: Harry Skelton| T: Miss A Murphy| OR: 120| D

12/1

Well bred mare and victorious on good-to-soft ground at Huntingdon 13 months ago. Generally disappointing since however including in a handicap hurdle at Doncaster (soft) last time out.

Form: 39-5PF6

Midnight Jazz^p³⁵

Age: 8| Weight: 11-0| J: Kielan Woods| T: B I Case| OR: 136| C

9/4

Winner of four races over hurdles the latest coming off a mark of 136 in December 2016. Running well in the main since and finished runner-up in first time cheekpieces in a similar race to this last time out. Leading contender today.

Form: 1220-62

Woolstone One^h³²

Age: 6| Weight: 11-0| J: G Sheehan| T: Miss E C Lavelle| OR: 117

5/1

Dual bumper winner in 2015/16 and winner of two of her three hurdles starts since joining this yard in the autumn. Latest over those came in a handicap over an extended 2m3f at Doncaster (soft) and she steps up in grade today.

Form: 10/6121

Forecasts

Midnight Jazz (9/4), Midnight Tour (5/2), Woolstone One (5/1), Jester Jet (7/1), Lamanver Odyssey (7/1), Mariah's Legend (12/1), Loves Destination (33/1)

The penalised MIDNIGHT TOUR has a bit in hand on official ratings and with that in mind she can register her second Listed success by taking this mares contest. The selection is a versatile individual and can take this at the chief expense of Midnight Jazz who ran well to finish runner-up in a similar race to this last time out. Woolstone One has a bit to find on bare ratings but is a potential improver having won two of her three outings over hurdles and she can claim third on this occasion.
