Wouldubewell hasn’t really fired this season but her last two runs have come in Grade 3 races. Panic Attack is a useful mare on her day and she should enjoy a first try over 3m over fences while Midnight Mary will almost certainly improve on her victory at Wetherby. CREDO is a bit more exposed some but is guaranteed to handle trip and going so gets the nod with Moon Eagle now 0-10.
