        Verdict

        This looks an easier task for STAR STORM as he steps up in distance after a fourth at Doncaster. That looks stronger form than the second of Our Thomas in soft ground at Catterick last time where he finished ahead of Mr Kite while both of Goathland's placed efforts this year have been over shorter trips on the all-weather. The remainder have shown little to date though it's difficult to assess the chances of Instagram on his three starts over hurdles in France.
