Verdict

A moderate contest which should go to Stormy Lord, who has shown enough to suggest a maiden is within his grasp. Stablemate Sweeping Storm whose dam was the winner of an Irish bumper, wouldn't have to be that good to take a hand in this. Natural, the winner of an 11-furlong handicap on the flat, may need softer ground to show his best. Shadow Catcher, from a yard in good form, is worthy of respect on this his first outing for present connection's.
