Minella Youngy is making his debut on the Flat but won a hurdle when trained in Ireland last year. Night Life hasn’t been beaten far the last twice but it’s about time DREAMS ADOZEN was getting her head in front having made the frame in her last four runs in handicaps, including one over course and distance in June. Weigh Anchor took a big step forward when second at Haydock and the once-raced Mistress Light is one of only two runners on tonight’s card from William Haggas’ Newmarket stable.
