Marengo Storm

SPECULATIVE Advised 7/2 Est. 24%

🥈 2ND

Mr Fox says

Marengo Storm (SR 90, 7/2) is the highest-rated horse in the field and has steamed in 16% since opening, suggesting market confidence. DistFit:+ confirms proven ability at 7f, Course:W1P1 at Kempton shows course familiarity, and a form line of 512155 shows consistent involvement with a recent fifth that keeps the mark competitive (MarkMv:=). Carrying 9-10 is manageable, and Richard Hughes at 15% with 1,400 runners is a solid handler. The headgear (p) has been applied before and clearly hasn't hindered — this is the freshest, most multi-signal case in the race. Each-way alternative: Chalk Mountain. Main danger: Chalk Mountain — Chalk Mountain (SR 84, 7/2) has been backed in 23% and boasts a remarkable Course:W3P9 record at Kempton, though GoingFit:- is a concern — if the ground dries enough to suit, this course specialist with a MarkMv:-2 advantage is fully capable of winning.
