A few with chances but STORMY FLIGHT figures on a handy mark and has been knocking on the door so is taken to gain a deserved first win of the season. Chinwag has been hit by the assessor for his Sedgefield victory but had a bit left in the tank there and rates the chief threat, with the lightly-raced Market Rasen scorer Blarney Bateleur much respected too.
