Showed very useful for on AW in early-2020. Absent since a poor run at Royal Ascot in June of that year. Betting perhaps the best guide to expectations given the length of his lay-off.

Latest win at Haydock in June. Also second at York in September but he needs to shrug off a poor run at Wolverhampton 14 days ago. Blinkers go back on.

Forecasts

Midnights Legacy (5/4), Protected Guest (5/2), Pivoine (6/1), Deal A Dollar (15/2), C'Est No Mour (8/1)

Verdict

Ryan Moore takes the ride on MIDNIGHTS LEGACY who may be up to defying top weight and making a winning return to action after wind surgery. Protected Guest can't be trusted for win purposes but he arrives in form and might be the one for the forecast spot.

  1. MIDNIGHTS LEGACY
  2. PROTECTED GUEST
  3. C'EST NO MOUR (GER)
