Pundit corner

Racing Post · third-party

Pundit pick: Stormy Master

Stormy Master rates a pound or two below North Of Nashville and Je Suis on bare figures, but a fitness edge and a progressive profile make a compelling case that the official gap understates where he stands right now, and over an extended twenty-five furlongs on good ground at Wexford there is plenty of stamina to be tested. North Of Nashville is the chief concern as the top-rated runner in the field, with Je Suis and Three County Star also capable of making their presence felt in what looks a strongly contested heat. Confidence is measured rather than absolute, yet the profile here suggests Stormy Master can step forward again and outrun his position in the ratings. Stormy Master is our selection.
