Verdict
Stormy Whatever only succumbed in the closing stages on his debut over the C&D on his debut and should make a bold bid from his low draw. Drummoyne led for a long way at Goodwood and has more improvement in him though he's drawn on the outside which won't help. Blue Shoes has shown ability and the easier ground may aid her cause but this may not take too much winning and a chance is taken on the newcomer INDEGO BLUES, a very speedily-bred half-brother to five winners up to 7f and out of a mare who scored over 6f.
