Forecasts

New Endeavour (5/2), Animate (11/4), Al Motasim (10/3), Mickey Mongoose (8/1), Oahu (17/2), Gallant Lion (14/1), Bashawaat (16/1), Al Tarfa (33/1), Nobody Told Me (50/1), Edwina Sheeran (80/1), Greek Siren (100/1), Y B Sober (125/1), Delayed Action (150/1)

NEW ENDEAVOUR built on his debut effort when third in a strong-looking Haydock novice in June and, with further progress in the offing, he gets the nod to come out on top. Newcomer Al Motasim makes appeal on paper and is feared, along with Animate. Al Tarfa is also worth a precautionary market check on racecourse bow.
