Formscan  - Although he found his winning run coming to an end when finishing third over 7f here last month, STORM STAR is entitled to build on that first run for 239 days. Moreover, a return to 1m is also likely to help the five-year-old and a fifth career victory may be on the horizon. Talis Evolvere arrives on the back of a triumph at Southwell and he may serve the most resistance to the selection, ahead of triple C&D scorer Rogue Encore.
