Not much form to go on here though John Williams did make all in a maiden point-to-point at Ballingarry in June. Stuart Crawford won three bumpers with LEGACY PHOENIX's half-sister Legacy Gold, including one over this course and distance. The Darsi mare wouldn't need to be anything special to make a winning debut. Guns At Midnight has a nice NH pedigree and is surely better than he showed at Catterick in January so can chase home the selection but the Trevor Hemmings-owned Hillier may need time.
