STORMY PEARL hasn’t threatened since winning at Hamilton in July though can effectively race off the same mark today with an apprentice’s allowance taken into account. She beat Fortuitous Star easily enough at Hamilton and the latter returned a beaten favourite at Doncaster subsequently. How Exciting failed to build on an earlier second at Beverley last time and is fitted with a hood while both Development and Megatron may improve now handicapping.
