Verdict

With most of these closely matched, STORMBOUND gets only a tentative vote. He finished just ahead of Lord Ofthe Shadows and Club House when third over track and trip three weeks ago but may well confirm superiority today. The latter had finished only a length behind Two In The Pink when Ralph Smith's mare scored here last month but Clement is unproven over this longer distance while Filosofo and Hierarch have not been at their best of late.
