Race preview
MIDNIGHT GOLD finished eight lengths clear of the third when runner-up in a class 5 event at Warwick on her latest outing and she is only 1lb higher for that performance. Neil Mulholland's seven-year-old remains fairly unexposed for her age and she could be ready to strike under Harry Cobden. The main danger might be Stowaway Jess, who makes her handicap debut after finishing a well-held fourth at Southwell last month and she could take a step forward. Of the remainder, Illogical Logic makes the most appeal.
