MIDLETON RARE shaped last time as if this step back up to 3m will suit and is taken to land a third success of the season. Gangster Granny is respected on the back of her good third at Downpatrick last month, while Its Not Over Yet is back down to a mark she really should be making an impact from. Ulster National fourth Money Heist completes the shortlist.
