With £3,054 of prize money, the Class 4 contest of 3m110y distance will commence at 2:55 (GMT).

Here we take a look on the career chart of Storming Gale in order to determine why he stands above all. Along with him, Slick Operator and Laughing Game are likely to finish second and third in the race respectively.
Storming Gale
The six-year-old young gelding started his career in March 2010. After bagging his maiden victory on March 21, 2010, he went on to win another big race on January 27, 2011. Being a 6-4 favourite, he delivered an outstanding performance and finished second
in his second last outing on January 1, 2012.
Unfortunately, the T G Leslie-owned runner got pulled out in his last start on January 17.
At the moment, the gelding seems to be carrying enough momentum which will surely help him thrive in today’s showdown. His chances to finish first are as high as 80 percent.
Slick Operator
Henrietta Knight’s black gelding made his debut in February 2011. He achieved the first ever victory of his career on March 13, 2011. During December 2011, the six-year-old runner got pulled out in two races in a row.
The Trevor Hemmings-owned gelding is likely to show a decent run today and get at least second top spot.
Laughing Game
The Laura Hurley-trained black mare performed extra-ordinarily well in her last two outings. After finishing 6th in a race on January 5, she went on to clinch second spot in another contest on January 19. .
As a whole, the eight-year-old mare has won one out of her total 25 starts so far. She is supposed to finish third in today’s competition.
Conclusion
Storming Gale will have to face tough challenges from Slick Operator and Laughing Game as both these runners pose to be in great momentum. Let us see how Storming Gale manages to win. Good luck to all the horses.
