        Verdict

        STORM SHELTER (NAP) showed a big improvement on his handicap debut when finishing runner-up over track and trip. He’s taken to confirm running with both Singe Du Nord and Spring To Freedom and go one better. Duke of Yorkie looks no nearer winning despite slipping down the weights and was five lengths behind the winner when second at Lingfield but Ghost Queen and Summa Force may both do better handicapping for the first time today.
