In depth

Verdict

LORD OF THE STORM has been in better form this year than when last seen over C+D in November. He won at Brighton in April and can race off a lower mark today with his apprentice's claim taken into account. Crimson Monarch went close in soft ground at Leicester on Monday and may be up to winning off his current mark while Oneiric could make the frame if she's in the mood. Gower Rules has the past form to figure and Cardi King may finish closer after a pipe-opener at Lingfield.
