FormscanBy Michael Graham - ROCCO STORM has plenty in his favour. He was gambled on over a similar trip at this track last month and came from a long way back to finish fifth in a higher grade. Jockey Mark McDonagh is now able to claim his full 7lb which he couldn't do in that opportunity race. In addition, the horse a neck behind Rocco Storm in sixth came out and won a novice handicap hurdle off a mark of 103 at Wexford on Wednesday, so Rocco Storm looks attractively weighted off a rating of 86 (with McDonagh's claim factored in). Highstreetfashion ran well for a long way before dropping to fourth over a longer trip in Fairyhouse, and can get involved. I Don't Get It finished eighth behind Rocco Storm, and didn't run badly at all when last seen taking fourth in Leopardstown on Monday.
