        Verdict

        Charmian's Place has produced two decent efforts though may be better suited by softer conditions. That remark also applies to Mistral Blue, who got outpaced on quick going at Huntingdon. Cool Style was beaten a long way at Sandown in February though that was a better race than this but the vote goes to the newcomer MIDNIGHT STING, whose dam was a winning hurdler and who hails from a yard in top form.
