Verdict
The Mark Brisbourne-trained Rainstorm has been in irresistible form of late and he looks to have been found a good opportunity to land the hat-trick here. Mobo Baco has plenty on at the weights so it may be worth chancing Swynford Elegance to get the better of Phred for a share of the minor honours. However, Rainstorm should again find this unfolding just as he likes and he can be expected to pounce in the shadows of the post if his recent exertions have not taken their toll.
