Verdict

There is no doubt that this is a weak heat even for this grade and all of these come with some sort of risk attached. That said MIDNIGHT BLISS has won her last two races and although she has an absence and a rise in the weights to overcome she has at least scored lately. It’s a surprise that the Olly Murphy yard hasn’t as yet found an opening for Apachee Prince but he has stumbled across a suitably weak contest here. Corner Creek has two course wins to his name although this trip may stretch him and Midnight Mustang makes slightly more appeal for the minor place.
