Showed reasonable amounts of promise when placed in a couple of novices' contests last spring. Never in it on his handicap debut at Newcastle, but that was after a winter break and he may be able to do better here. Should be capable of being competitive.

Probably his best effort so far was on debut in a Windsor maiden in August (6f, good to firm) and after being gelded, he again went well when making the frame first time back at Kempton in February. Not as effective in maiden or claiming company since and now drops to this level. Stable going well.

Was not far away from winning from this mark in a Newbury handicap in October and has a couple of other very respectable effort in defeat to his name in that sphere. Can throw in the odd poor run, like last time, but more likely than most in terms of reliability and looks a leading player here.

Been unable to cope with marks in the 50s in handicaps and still comfortably held from 47 at Wolverhampton last time. Hard to fancy at the weights now in a seller for the first time.

Showed little on debut in a Kempton maiden last month and connections opt to send her straight into this grade, which has to be a concern. Not easy to enthuse about her chance.

7/1
Debut run at Lingfield last month perhaps not quite as bad as it first looks on paper, as she was entitled to run green. Even so, this will be a little bit easier and the extra furlong an advantage (dam won over 7f as a 2yo) so a market check is advised in her case.

Ran well in a similar contest at Lingfield in November (1m) and also at that track in claiming company (7f) in January. Has raced keenly or led in recent runs and therefore this drop back in trip might be worth a try and she is one of the more likely contenders.

0-14 and a 3L runner-up on her only previous try in this grade at Wolverhampton in February. Decent effort in a handicap there last time. Seems likely to find something to beat her, but nonetheless could be in the shake-up.

Well beaten in all five starts, the last two being handicaps from marks of 62 and then 58. Dropped into this grade now and interesting pilot booked, so a market check advised.

0-11 and yet to make the frame in any start. First run in a seller, but nothing seen for her form so far would have you beating a path to wager today.

Forecasts

Endeavour (4/1), Jet Setter (4/1), Dontforgettocall (5/1), Lady Volante (6/1), Ivor's Fantasy (7/1), Champagne Queen (10/1), Joyful Dream (10/1), Irish Sky (12/1), Jackman (25/1), Newz Watch (40/1), Red Shanghai (200/1)

Verdict

ENDEAVOUR is another Richard Hannon-trained runner who could be capable of winning in this very mediocre contest. Jet Setter is likely to be very competitive, while others who should be involved when the chips are down are Dontforgettocall, Lady Volante and Joyful Dream.
