FormscanBy Tom Weekes - MIDNIGHT RUN is tipped to beat Grade 1 winning bumper mare Colreevy and score on hurdles debut and reappearance run. MIDNIGHT RUN twice won nicely in bumpers last season and also performed with great credit when second in a hot Navan Listed bumper, won by Envoi Allen, last November. The form of that Navan bumper is very strong and MIDNIGHT RUN looks likely to improve for hurdling and should also appreciate testing ground. Colreevy is clearly a high class hurdles prospect and while she was a slightly better bumper performer, the concern is she has followed a slightly less conventional route to hurdling. She won twice at Punchestown Festivals, at Grade 3 level in 2018 and in the Grade 1 race last May, and while she has probably jumped umpteen hurdles at home since her debut point-to-point run (when a final fence faller) in March 2017, she nonetheless spent two years in bumpers and could be vulnerable to MIDNIGHT RUN who looks sure to improve for going jumping. Fire Away contested the Punchestown Champion Bumper, behind Colreevy, last May and while he is a capable type, was well enough beaten at Wexford on hurdles debut in June and now reverts to two miles. Goodbye Someday is showing gradual improvement in form but needs to improve a bit to win while Conflated has shown useful form in bumpers but also needs to improve to win, and has also fallen on both his point-to-point and hurdle starts.
