        Verdict

        MIDNIGHT FEAST is up 3lb for his recent win over course and distance when he beat the re-opposing Mafi a length. He makes more appeal than Kakapuka although the latter did show signs of a resurgence at Kempton on his latest start. Titan Triumph has yet to show any improvement for his slide down the weights and Ellie In The Pink has a bit to find with the selection on collateral form. Vastly and Yajber are less exposed than most including the enigmatic Copperwood, who is quite capable of landing this on a going day.
