Captain Midnight was receiving 13lb from National Service when beating him just under a length here in November but the weights favour the latter this time and he's also been in excellent form in the UK. MR RIGHT is still a maiden but hasn't had much racing and produced his best run to date when chasing home Little Sweetheart over the minimum last month. That was his first start since September and he should be ready for this. Times In Anatefka, Shinyhappyjohn and Missile Command were only just behind him that day but all are well exposed and look held.
