Both of Best Endeavour's wins have come over shorter trips, including last week's success over 7f at Wolverhampton. Fine View and Free One won their respective maidens over 7f at the same track but CLARENTINE makes most appeal. She won over today's distance at Lingfield on her latest start and is only 2lb higher for this. The Dancing Lord went close over a longer trip last time and Boarding Party wasn't beaten far in this grade at Kempton despite finishing only fifth.
