Alien Storm silk
Alien Storm
Selected at: 7/2

Alien Storm is clearly a better horse over fences but connections will be seeking to take advantage of the fact that his hurdles mark is 6lb lower here. He only just about squeezes into this 0-120 and Daire McConville’s 7lb claim will lighten his load significantly.
