Verdict

Paul Midgley is a real dab hand with his sprinters and VENTURA EXPRESS was impressive when making a winning stable debut in a C&D event 9 days ago. He's fancied to go well again and earns the vote to follow up under a penalty. Soul Seeker is the type to do better for David O'Meara and rates the chief threat, ahead of Ascot Jungle.
