MIDRARR ran well on the back of a wind op when keeping on for second over shorter at Newcastle 17 days ago and a repeat should see her firmly in the mix back up in trip. Red Verdon needs to shrug off a lesser effort in the Northumberland Plate but can get involved if doing so. Patient Dream, back on the Flat, is also worth a second look.
