Formscan - DARK TORNADO had the measure of Sterling Knight (second) over 7f on the Rowley Mile in May before being far from disgraced in the Summer Mile at Ascot last month. Denis Quinn's gelding reverts to handicap company from only 4lb higher than that latest success and the low-mileage son of Dark Angel could bounce back. Elarak struggled in Listed company over C&D but he remains of interest, as does recent Thirsk scorer Rhythm Master. Dutch Decoy picked up this prize in 2022 can't be overlooked either.
