Verdict
Pagan Storm looks to have been found a suitable opportunity to open his account and gets the vote to do so over Milly Fleur and That's Enough. The last mentioned is the best horse in the race judged by official BHB ratings but has a long absence to overcome and may need the outing. Rae Guest's Milly Fleur lost no caste in defeat behind Aegean Magic over course and distance last time but the winner is only rated 66 so the form may not amount to a great deal. Amanda Perrett's Pagan Storm has earned a rating of 75 and should prove to be too good for his rivals here. A simple reproduction of his best form should suffice for the son of Tabasco Cat. Alumnus and Subtle Move are worthy of a mention but it will take a good one to beat Pagan Storm, who is a worthy favourite.
