13/2

Opal Storm defied odds of 66/1 when opening her account in a five-furlong handicap at Carlisle last year for Chris Fairhurst and she has proved very consistent since moving yards this season. She was unlucky not to push the reopposing Refuge closer when runner-up over this course and distance three weeks ago, that one drifting into her path as she was mounting a serious challenge, and unable to recover after switching for a run. Opal Storm is better off at the weights with that rival now and, given she remains less exposed than most she’ll meet at this level, she remains a horse to be firmly interested in.
