Taking the weight horse in the Tips and Race Preview for the 2021 Perth Cup at Ascot on Saturday.
Midnight Blue is at great odds at $8 in the 2021 Perth Cup (2400m) at Ascot on Saturday.

2021 PERTH CUP – RACE ANALYSIS AND TIPS
Trap For Fools and Adornment will cross from wide gates, Platoon, Juicing Carrots and Utgard Loki all race handy so tempo should be solid. MIDNIGHT BLUE (13) has had no luck in two close seconds with big weights at his last two but gets 7.5kg relief here. Drawn perfectly as well and can be right in the finish.
TRULY GREAT (1) needs to overcome a weight carrying record to lump 60kg to victory but he's clearly the best horse in the race and the one to beat. NEUFBOSC (4) backs up after a dominant win last week and is hitting his best at the right time. PRINCESS JENNI (3) can't be left out and TRAP FOR FOOLS (2) will give a sight.
