Stuck on last three:
4d: Partner to ruff holding two of trumps - I have to recover (8) _ _ _ R _T_ E

13a: How bulls express anger at charge for barge? (7)
_ _ O_ A _ E (Might be STORAGE but I can't think why?)

Bird U: U_ _ R_ T _E - can't find one that fits.

Thanks!

Just got 4d: RE(TR)E(IVE) (to recover)

TR (two of trumps ok, and IVE but I need the rest explained. Is a REE some sort of ruff companion?? Nothing to do with bridge of course!
