Endowed never threatened the winner when runner-up over track and trip but Touchwood also placed here before winning a maiden at Nottingham. SANDS OF TIME will be sharper for a belated reappearance run at Chelmsford and may prove the one to side with given Mark Johnston gets plenty of winners at this venue. Media Blitz is fitted with headgear for her handicap bow while Kendergarten Kop scored off today’s mark here in June so can't be ignored.
