A winner at Market Rasen in December, Midnight Ginger has found only one too good in her two most recent starts and should be thereabouts again. Jaunty Freyja wasn’t beaten far at Ffos Las after landing a Chepstow handicap but a drop in distance may not prevent the penalised BELLATRIXSA from completing her hat-trick as she can use the recent course and distance winner Credo as a target to hunt down in the closing stages. The latter’s stable companion Good Look Charm is making her handicap debut but she may be a couple of pounds too high.
