Verdict
Storming Home ran a fair race in the King George last time out when sixth weakening only in the final furlong behind Golan he takes a step down in class here and he will relish the forecast fast ground. Hatha Anna could be the main danger he appeared not to stay two miles last time out and will relish the return to this shorter trip. The Whistling Teal won well at Newmarket last time out when defeating Travlemate but this looks tougher. Systematic ran is ultra consistent he goes on any ground and he will find this contest a lot easier than when fifth in a Group 2 last time out behind Bandari. Gamut could also go well at a fair price he is well bred and relish this extra distance.
