Midnight Flower beat Links Drive lady and Tassel at Newmarket three runs ago but races off a 13lb higher mark today and has been beaten twice since, albeit in better company. She also got the better of NARDIN at Newmarket in June but Ed Dunlop's filly is now 14lb better off and will surely turn the tables. The latter continues to run well and deserves a change of luck and this could be her chance dropped a pound since another solid effort at Newmarket two weeks ago. Badr Al Badoor has come good on the Polytrack this summer and could figure if translating that form back to Turf as she was quite highly regarded as a juvenile but the others have their work cut out to feature.
