        Verdict

        Dalby Forest is the most exposed and is conceding plenty of weight to the younger Desert Fighter, who is weighted to come out best of that pair. MIDNIGHTATHEOASIS never figured at Wolverhampton on last month’s debut but he’ll know more today and Charlie Hills’ yard has been among the winners in the last few days. Yesterday's Hero can include a Listed winner among several winning relatives and is preferred to both Dance Angel and Passion Tango of the newcomers.
