In depth

Verdict

Should I Stay fell at the second at Plumpton on Monday but looks built to jump fences and it's significant that he's been turned out again quickly here. South Stack was beaten 26 lengths on his chasing bow at Uttoxeter in May and usually finds at least one too good while Christopher Wren has become very disappointing and is still a maiden over the larger obstacles after nine attempts. MIDNIGHT TUESDAY is proving difficult to place but has shown definite signs of ability and probably worth one more chance as he appeared to resent going right-handed at Huntingdon last time. George Nympton has only ever won at Warwick but still makes more appeal than Another Flutter and Full Ov Beans.
