Verdict
Endeavor has won nine times over hurdles but just once over fences. He enjoys quick ground and with conditions likely to suit he should go well. Los Nadis has eleven career victories to his credit though he's still a maiden over fences. MY IDEA has been raised 7lb after a comfortable victory over the course and distance last month but his regular rider claims most of that back and a follow-up looks on the cards. Lord Of Drums has been in decent form but has yet to prove he stays this far under Rules despite winning a point-to-point. Mister Wall Street has had almost a year off but likes good ground while Alpha One is on the same mark as when last scoring at Sedgefield a year ago.
