Midnight Walk made all at Sedgefield but she was flattered by her winning margin having been well beaten off this mark at Cartmel earlier. Hint Of Grey looks too high in the weights judged on her run at Southwell in June while Ginger Fizz is hard to catch right nowadays and SOLSTALLA is weighted to reverse Worcester running in August. David Weston’s mare certainly deserves a change of luck and would probably handle any rain. Bobble Boru has each-way claims but Undefined Beauty would need to take a big step forward on her first run for Olly Murphy.
