Storm Rock is back on the same mark as when successful in similar class last October so don't be surprised by a revival. Glory Awaits has steadily dropped to a winnable mark and showed a bit more dash at Chepstow but STORM AHEAD looks the one to be on. Unlucky in-running on his reappearance in June after a long break, he won a similar class handicap at Salisbury in the style of a horse going places and a 6lb rise doesn't look enough to prevent a follow-up. Zwayyan could hardly have won more easily at Haydock and though that was a Class 4 handicap and he's 8lb higher he's an obvious contender as is Wind In My Sails, another taking a step up from that grade on a higher mark.
