Formscan - Some C&D specialists do battle and MIDNIGHT CALL can register her sixth Wolverhampton success since November. Even in defeat during that period, Tony Carroll's speedster hasn't been far away and her latest triumph showed she is worth sticking with. Shalaa Asker is another reliable sprinter and was a few places ahead of Phoenix Beach when pipped here most recently. Cheekpieces don't need to prompt too much improvement from Binadham, while Em Four is holding his form well.
