Hemingford won in the mud at Nottingham last month but a 7lb rise looks harsh. Simpson appreciated the step up to a mile at Windsor on his nursery debut but is 5lb higher now and Mark Johnston trained the second that day so should know where he stands with NOBLE MANNNERS. A typically tough juvenile for the stable, she had excuses at Ripon last time having won at Newmarket before that and her earlier form has worked out well. Midnight Wilde won over 7f here last month but has struggled in handicaps since.
