Verdict
Midnight Centurion has a shout at the weights on earlier attempts but has returned a beaten favourite on the last three occasions and TIKITOV is preferred. The latter was having only his second outing over timber when runner-up over course and distance last month and should go close with any further progress. Cloudy Hills failed to complete on his hurdling bow while Kracquer debuts for a new yard.
