On the pleaded facts (assumed true for strike out), the 2nd and 3rd defendants owed a duty of care to Castle World under the threefold test, the assumption of responsibility test and as an ordered incremental development of authority; consequently the plaintiff's claim seeks to recover loss that merely reflects loss of the company and is therefore a prohibited claim for reflective loss and discloses no reasonable cause of action, so the Statement of Claim against the 2nd and 3rd defendants is struck out.
