Verdict

NOVAK is well treated and this 7f trip should suit better than the 6f he tackled when third at Hamilton 9 days ago, where he'd have gone closer but for missing the break. Black Storm was narrowly denied in a higher grade at Musselburgh last time and is a threat if settling better, while course winner Ashen can make his presence felt.
