JEWEL MAKER is beginning to look very well handicapped and has run well here in similar conditions in the past so is chanced to end a long losing run. Restless Endeavour is still reasonably lightly raced and should go well under her penalty for a C&D victory last week. My Friend Stan should appreciate the drop in trip and return to this venue.
