Pundit corner
Racing Post · third-partyPundit pick: Night Storm
Night Storm is our selection, preferred over the top-rated on: progressive profile, even though Rogue Supremacy leads our figures on 90 to Night Storm's 86. The chief dangers are Rogue Supremacy, Moving Force and Jungle Drums, the latter two rated 84 alongside American Style and Charlie Mason in a tightly bunched contest. With so many runners rated within a few pounds of the selection, confidence here is low, but Night Storm's stronger recent profile gets the vote.
