NIGHT GENERATION continued his good progress when winning easily on his first start over today's trip at Lingfield. He can shrug off a penalty and the hat-trick beckons for Sir Mark Prescott's charge. Aldreth landed a double over 2m during the summer but has been well beaten of late, though Hallstatt is capable off going close off his current mark. The 1m4f winner Vanishing attempts today's longer distance for the first time, as does Stormin Tom, but can be given a chance if lasting home.
