FormscanBy Alan Magee - STORM AVERTED showed a liking for this venue when runner-up over 7f last autumn and again shaped well when reappearing after a three-month break here earlier this week. The Mick Mulvany-trained filly had Convincing a neck back in fifth, with Comfort Line and Loingseoir also behind, when beaten less than a length over an extended mile. Reidh won twice last summer including over course and distance and indicated a return to form on his latest start at Catterick, while Dragon Of Malta has won twice here over 7f and caught the eye at Limerick last time. Zaraahmando is on a hat-trick after wins over this trip at Limerick and Fairyhouse.
