Verdict
Saddlers Quest had Karannelle and Pepsiwithacap behind when scoring here last month but there is little between that trio on today’s revised terms. Princess Midnight is 0-11 over hurdles and hasn’t run over the smaller obstacles since the end of 2021. WILDERNESS (NAP) has won over timber and placed over 1m6f on the Flat in May. She’s won five times on the level and looks very well treated in this. The remaining pair are best watched.
