STORM GODDESS is improving with experience and should have too much for Hereford fourth Ninth Wave if she reproduces her second to the odds-on Mega Yeats at Wetherby as the first two pulled well clear. Liz's Dream won a bumper but never threatened when third on her hurdling debut at Huntingdon and may need further. Manofthemountain was beaten a long way at Taunton and Getaway Mission may need more time.
