Formscan  - Al Shabab Storm was too bad to be true when coming home in last in a Listed event at Doncaster in March and he must enter calculations reverting to handicap company with Jack Nicholls claiming a handy 7lb. Regardless, WILLEM TWEE arrives on the back of a decent third at Newcastle and, off an unchanged mark, a sixth career victory could be in the offing. Queen's Guard is also of interest.
