Verdict
Midnight Tour had her big day when landing a similar race at Cheltenham in April. She hasn't been in the best of form lately but over longer trips and she should do better here. She was beaten a long way at Kempton over Christmas when Jester Jet pulled up but the latter started a much shorter price after a fine run at Cheltenham a couple of weeks earlier. MIDNIGHT JAZZ bounced back to form when just failing to hold off Poppy Kay over slightly shorter in a Listed contest at Sandown. A similar effort would probably suffice here. Lamanver Odyssey landed a strong Wincanton handicap but was struggling when falling in a better race at Cheltenham while Woolstone One takes a big step up in grade after winning a Class 4 handicap at Doncaster.
