Midnight Sequel had an entry at Stratford yesterday and that may have opened the door for Daniel Hiskett's mount POWDERONTHEBONNET. He wasn't beaten far over a similar trip at Uttoxeter last week off this mark and makes more appeal than the enigmatic Amuse Me, who is much better over fences. Western Goose could claim a place granted luck in-running but it's hard to make a case for many of the others.
