RACING POST VERDICT

Watch The Weather rates two pounds below the top-rated Intense Approach on our figures, but a progressive profile suggests there is more to come from this runner over this demanding twenty-two-furlong trip at Tramore, and that upside makes the case for siding with connections here. Intense Approach and Marv Michael, the latter sharing the same rating as our selection, are the chief dangers alongside Nastya, who is a cut below the leading trio on current figures but capable of outrunning that gap in the right conditions. The confidence level is modest, and this is not a race to be bullish about, yet the trajectory of Watch The Weather's form points to improvement at the right time. Watch The Weather is the selection.
