Storm Home has been disappointing over fences so far while Admiral's Sunset didn’t show much at Stratford. David Pipe runs two but Tom Scudamore prefers TEASER to Delface even though the four-year-old made mistakes when making a winning start over the larger obstacles at Ffos Las. These fences aren’t generally as testing and there should be plenty of improvement to come.
