Verdict
Rostello has been taking on better company but Abaya Du Mathan never seems to run two races alike. Pens Man got back to winning ways at Southwell in July and Obey The Rules was second at Stratford after winning at Market Rasen but MIDNIGHT JEWEL (NAP) got the better of a subsequent winner at Fontwell and an earlier second at Worcester has worked out well so Charlie Longsdon’s gelding looks the one to beat in this.
