Verdict
The Toojumpa needs forgiving a poor effort last month at Uttoxeter while Legends Ryde has disappointed the last twice. ELEANOR BOB had plenty in hand when beating Miss Jeanne Moon four lengths at Huntingdon. She’d also won earlier at Chepstow and can defy a 6lb rise if she handles this slightly quicker surface.
