Verdict

Serena Brotherton is on board Loving Your Work though his best recent run was on heavy going at Salisbury. Hugh Nugent is a very capable amateur jumps jockey who doesn't get too many rides on the Flat but should be capable of giving MIDNIGHT MOOD plenty of assistance and his mount is in good form being just 2lb higher than his victory on fast going at Lingfield. Jamie Brace steered Alketios into second in a better race than this at Goodwood last time and and it would be no surprise if his mount went one better while James Harding looked to have picked up a fine ride on Broad Appeal, who battled on really well to score at Kempton though he's only ever won on that track. Hawridge Glory has been racing in better company and will have his regular partner on board so could provide the main threat.
