Verdict
STORMY ROAD probably exceeded expectations when second here on debut but proved that run was no fluke stepped up to this trip at Brighton. She only has a small penalty and looks capable of going in again, though Navigate By Stars gave notice of more to come when third at Chester. Elsie Violet was third over 7f at Wolverhampton last time but some of her rivals are more likely to appreciate this longer trip. Stablemates Amorously and Star Of War are among that group but both of the John Gosden newcomers sport headgear with jockey bookings suggesting Ever Changing will be the best of those. El Gumryah was a promising third at Goodwood but the extra furlong here could pose problems.
