Born At Midnight²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 10-12| J: Rex Dingle⁽⁷⁾| T: W G M Turner

7/1

Did not shape too badly on bumper debut and cannot be dismissed lightly in a race that will take little winning.

Form: 8

Just Perfect¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 10-12| J: Matthew Batchelor| T: George Baker

25/1

Second in a poor bumper and limitations were exposed here on hurdling debut two weeks ago when tailed off last of 11.

Form: 20

Poucor⁴²

Age: 3| Weight: 10-12| J: M Goldstein| T: M R Channon

14/1

Only Flat run of note came on heavy ground when positively ridden. Can be a bit keen and last run was particularly poor.

Westbrook Bertie²²

Age: 3| Weight: 10-12| J: Brendan Powell| T: M R Channon

11/8

Heavy ground 1m2f winner at Salisbury in April, when rated 75. Satisfactory hurdling debut at Fakenham and improvement expected on this more testing ground.

Form: 3

Furia D'Oudairies²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 10-5| J: J E Moore| T: G & J Moore

9/4

Showed enough in two bumpers to suggest she will make her presence felt in this company. Stable rarely leave here empty handed and one to watch in the market.

Form: 35

Yamuna River^p¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 10-5| J: Tom Cannon| T: C Gordon

4/1

Runner-up to a Gary Moore runner here a month ago in what was her most inspired performance to date. Tailed off on the Flat since and that lack of consistency is an issue.

This will take little winning and WESTBROOK BERTIE has been found an ideal opportunity to add to his sole Fat success. Conditions are very much to his liking and his hurdling experience earns him the nod over Furia D'Oudairies. Gary Moore landed a similar race here last month and this filly receives a generous allowance having shown promise in bumpers. The inconsistent Yamuna River was second here last month and it should come as little surprise she was tailed off next time when reverting to the Flat.
