WESTERN STORM looked to have the race in safe keeping here latest but he was denied late on. A repeat of that here ought to be enough and he gets the vote. Balkinstown also ran well over C&D latest and rates the biggest danger although he must lie closer to the pace today. Rubys Cube ran her best race to date over C&D latest and enters the equation too.
