The Gipper is hoping to make it third-time lucky after seconds here and at Warwick. But he may find one too good again in the shape of the filly MIDNIGHT TUNE. She's by Midnight Legend and her stable is very capable of readying one at home. Court King is another newcomer who catches the eye on breeding while Catcher On The Go, Druids Lodge and Majestic Touch have all hinted at ability and are capable of further improvement.
