Verdict
Storm Eric has never won but had Circles behind when placed last month and is better off as the latter, an easy winner next time, is 9lb higher. She had earlier been beaten by Bronze River with Indiana Grey runner-up though the winner hasn't run up to that form subsequently. Sondheim has a tougher task than when scoring from 6lb lower in November but THERIVERRUNSDEEP has been steadily dropping to a winnable mark and looks ready to take advantage after a much better run behind Poet's Pride last week. Well Suited is on a very long losing run and is better over a mile.
