Race preview
Tricky customer Protected Guest won over C&D off a 3lb higher mark earlier in the year but that remains his only success from his last 28 starts and he's not one to rely on at cramped odds. Preference is for four-time turf winner MIDNIGHTS LEGACY with Ryan Moore an eye-catching booking. Alan King's charge has won over hurdles and undergone wind surgery since a fruitless spell on the AW last winter, so may still have improvement in him. C&D winner C'Est No Mour looks the most appealing of the remainder.
