HIGH STORM ran in a couple of warm novices in the autumn and is now stepping up to a trip more in line with his pedigree, so he gets the vote. Charlie Appleby has a superb record with 3-y-o newcomers here (5 out of last 6 have won) so Pursuit of Love and Sailor Song are of obvious interest.

- PURSUIT OF LOVE
