Verdict
This is a competitive nursery but BLUE STORM has shown himself to be a speedy colt on Turf and he could go close if handling the switch to Tapeta. Havana Rose is also interesting making her all-weather debut while Rare Jewel will find this easier than the Group 3 she contested at Longchamp in August. Due For Luck was favourite for the race that Curious Rover won at Haydock a month ago but ran a shocker. The latter has since run well again at York and can’t be left out of calculations.
