Verdict

MIDNIGHT GINGER has been remarkably consistent over the last 12 months. She’s probably high enough in the weights now but regular pilot James Martin takes off 7lb again and she won’t go down without a fight. Mayhem Mya got back to winning ways at Sandown but she probably needs soft ground to show her best. Lipa K is in danger of becoming disappointing and Krypton Gold is only 1-21 while Ideal Pal has been chasing.
