Verdict

Storm Melody popped up here earlier in the year but finished well behind PERFECT SYMPHONY over track and trip last month. The latter has subsequently finished runner-up back at the track when ahead of Battle Point and can confirm running. Reversion is another with something to find with the selection though posted a better effort at Wolverhampton recently and has the measure of Reckon I'm Hot.
