Storm Rock won a Class 2 handicap on soft ground at Salisbury but couldn't handle the extra in a similar race at Newbury when Awake My Soul was just behind. Both should be happier in this grade as should IMSHIVALLA, who made a bold bid to make all at Ayr after racing in Listed company previously and is taken to hang on this time. Al Destoor landed a Class 4 handicap at Nottingham before beaten from a 4lb higher mark at Pontefract while Little Lady Katie ran her best race for a very long time at Newmarket and would be a threat with a similar performance.
