VIVA VERGLAS looked to have gone off the boil after landing a hat-trick during the summer. But he bounced back with a fine effort at Haydock last week and can return to winning ways on his Polytrack debut. Captain Midnight is now 10lb higher than when scoring at Beverley in August but Peterkin has been taking on better company since landing his maiden and may figure. Lexington Rose has slipped down the weights and should confirm earlier running at Musselburgh with Orton Park.
