Verdict
Hurricane Lane is fitted with headgear having returned a beaten favourite for the fourth time in succession on his reappearance at Newbury. William Buick still prefers him to stablemate and Group 2 winner Global Storm but WEST WIND BLOWS (NAP) is expected to improve further this season. A winner at Listed and Group 3 level last term, the Crisfords’ colt is entered in Group 1 races later in the year and can make a winning return. Outbox and Jewel In My Crown have plenty to find in this company.
