Verdict

NIGHT STORM was much improved when landing a gamble back from 15 months off at Newcastle and can go on progressing. He can win again. Leading Times made a successful start at Southwell despite doing a fair bit wrong and he'll have more to offer. Peregrine Falcon looks good for another place.
