Saeed bin Suroor’s Midnight Thunder caught the eye when winning at Windsor last time and will have to carry a 7lb penalty for that success. Oisin Murphy is booked to ride and this two-year-old is sure to go well in this clash British Stallion Studs EBF Novice Stakes.
Charlie Appleby has chosen James Doyle to ride his Godolphin representative Al Misbar who has yet to justify favouritism on both career starts but has run well in defeat. He could take advantage of the move into calmer waters.
