Verdict
I AM GONNA BE found only one too good on her hurdling bow at Uttoxeter and this extra distance will suit. Its A Midnight disappointed last time having finished third at Hexham earlier but Young Moloney posted a better effort when runner-up at Cartmel back in July. Licit returns to hurdling having been in winning form on the Flat while point-to-point winner Lady Mendoza debuts under Rules. Perculator was due to run at Hexham yesterday.
