Ballymore Vision debuted at Newmarket in September and will find this easier while Wall Game placed at Kempton in December. Pedrar went close over a shorter trip when trained in France last year but a couple of these have more recent form. Pearly Star ran fresh over track and trip earlier in the month but EDEN STORM had little chance when fifth behind a winner rated 93 at Southwell on his debut and given the runner-up has subsequently won, Marco Botti’s charge gets the vote.
