Verdict
Midnight Glory bids to follow up last month’s Ludlow victory off a 7lb higher mark but Silver Sea is also a recent winner. Veteran Theredballoon has been lightly raced in recent years but is having a first run away from Southwell in more than four years. Misty Bloom won at Exeter and Taunton last month but this softer surface is something of an unknown. TRIGGER NICHOL fell at the last at Ludlow on his reappearance but was in the process of running his best race to date and Richard Newland’s maiden will strip fitter here.
