Verdict

MIDNIGHT TOKER was giving weight to both winner As It Was and second Thunderbear when beaten a couple of lengths at Navan last month. The boot is on the other foot here and Ger Lyons’ gelding can recoup losses. Reinforce started favourite on her debut in a nursery at the Curragh last month but only beat one home. That wasn’t her form but she will need to do better. Pretty Persuasion looks held on the form book.
