MIDNIGHT BLISS looked an improved performer back under Rules last time out and she is taken to follow up that success with a victory in this staying handicap chase. Roparta Avenue has run well in defeat the last twice and looks capable of chasing the selection home ahead of top weight Guerrilla Tactics who was narrowly beaten at Warwick last time.
