JUDGE EARLE remains potentially well handicapped on the pick of his form and Peter Bowen has proved a master of being able to exploit lucrative marks with his elder performers. Storm Lorenzo may have found a recent run at Hexham coming too soon after an earlier success at that circuit so its conceivable that he could leave that run well behind. Go All The Way was punted on a first start for the stable but his jumping did not stand up to scrutiny on that occasion. Midnight Glance has largely been at her best when there has been some give in the ground.
