MIDNIGHT LEGACY and Salamanca School have already met, with the former coming out on top, and Salamanca School gave that form an even better look by winning next time up. Both should progress this season but for today, Midnight Legacy is taken to come out on top once more. Hooroo ploughed through the Nottingham mud to score on his final start of last year and may have more to offer, and Crystal Pegasus still has time to turn things around. Maori Knight was impressive at Chelmsford and might be the biggest threat to the selection if staying this trip.
