Midnight Moss won at Doncaster when last in action but that was back in 2020 and is 4lb higher on his return. UALLRIGHTHARRY has the more recent form with a second at Plumpton when ahead of Cheque En Blanc and he gets the vote. Un Prophete may finish closer back in this lower grade but Abaya Du Mathan has failed to threaten for current connections having won five times over fences when trained in France.
