      Verdict

      Mia's Storm hasn’t raced since falling when favourite for the Kauto Star at Kempton on Boxing Day and a drop back in distance may not suit the mare. Her yard could also be in better form. BIGMARTRE was well beaten in the JLT at Cheltenham last month but a defeat of Cyrname on better going at Newbury in December reads well and he’s probably worth another try over this longer trip. Cobra De Mai has improve lately but still has a bit to find on these terms and Peregrine Run is having a first run since August but Adrien Du Pont should do better now the ground has dried out and wouldn’t have a lot to find on official ratings.
