ROCCO STORM has proved something of a revelation since undergoing a wind op and holds good claims of garnering a fourth success on the back of his emphatic C&D win last month. Netywell came good over fences here last time out and rates the chief threat, although Newcastle scorer Ritson is another who can have a say in a competitive handicap.
