Race preview
Having secured a fourth course victory at Fontwell just over a fortnight ago, Midnight Jewel merits respect in his follow-up bid off just 1lb higher. However, he does have more on his plate and the returning PEP TALKING looks more progressive. The seven-year-old found only a subsequent dual winner too strong on his hat-trick bid at Warwick in May and a similar performance may suffice. Jackpot Cash and Davidoc cannot be ruled out either.
