The market will probably tell us more than the form book for this with little reliable and recent evidence to go on. Londonia did manage to score last time and needs to produce a career best to follow up. Sixties Idol was supported last time but was soundly beaten and the handicapper appears to have taken few chances. Zante is probably better than his latest run suggests but it is nevertheless an effort that leaves him plenty to find with MIDNIGHT JITTERBUG. The topweight showed she was progressing when third that day and the way she was staying on suggests this slightly longer trip and uphill finish will suit. Kristal Hart represents a top yard that landed a treble on this card last year including a division of this. She will need to improve but is relatively unexposed in this sphere.
