Verdict
STORMIE OUTLOOK was making his track debut when runner-up to Von Krolock, who was receiving 12lb, last month and can go one better. Han Solo beat a huge field over Cork's straight 7f but has shot up 13lb as a consequence. Storm Eric hasn't been here since scoring in April and will be 4lb lower while International Lady was just held by Exquisite Lady, who runs earlier, last week. Tynamite, a five-times winner here, is on a long losing run but has a chance at these weights while another five-times winner, Sunset Nova, has dropped to his lowest-ever mark and has a 7lb claimer on board.
