Kilty Storm gets the confident vote here with Noir Et Vert and Cul La Balla rating the main dangers. The selection was a fair third behind the highly regarde Heez A Dreamer last time out, that form has since been franjked and in an easier affair he is hard to oppose. Noir Et Vert rates the main danger as he wion well last time when beating Siler Seeker, he is sure to have been well schooled for this his chasing debut and he should be watched in tghe market. Cul La Balla is another that could go well on his best form but he took a heavy fall last time so can not be put forward with any confidence. Of the remainder Iron Warrior is from a yard in form and is another that could go well but he is often let down by his jumping and for the winner we return to Kilty Storm.
