Verdict
Midnight Rider was beaten by a couple of higher rated horses in a claimer over course and distance last time and can be given a chance. The inconsistent Drive On also has a shout on his earlier second at the track off a higher mark. Lady Brigid failed to cope with a 6lb rise for winning at Windsor when returning to the same track and Zman Awal came up just short when favourite at Wolverhampton last time. MULTITASK scored over 7f and went close again at Lingfield last month off today's mark. He gets a speculative vote to get his head back in front here.
