Mascat has placed in both starts back on the Flat and went close over track and trip when just ahead of Solent Gateway. Aaddeey will be sharper for a recent run and is preferred to Boss Power but last year’s winner MIDNIGHTS LEGACY (NAP) makes most appeal. The latter has won twice over hurdles subsequently and William Buick is back on board for the first time since last season’s success. The veteran Restorer ran well at Chester recently and is preferred to Farhan of the rest.
