Racing Post verdict
Third-partyThis Class 4 contest over 7f on standard ground is headed clearly on our figures by Storm Free, rated 94 and a full seven pounds clear of Chalk Mountain in second on 87. Exotic Baby (85) and Asteverdi (83) are not far behind that pair, so there is real depth chasing the leader. Storm Free is our selection given the scale of that rating advantage, though the picture here is unsettled enough that we hold only low confidence in the result. Chalk Mountain, Exotic Baby and Asteverdi are the chief dangers if he fails to deliver.
