Only a neck separated Dana Forever and Endless Joy at Wolverhampton and there should be little between the pair again here. Isobar Wind wasn’t beaten far over 5f here earlier in the month and won a seller over this trip at Ripon so looks the pick of David Evans’ two runners. Jump The Gun has already placed at York and Nottingham but is not really progressing. TWICE AS LIKELY only weakened close home at Ascot last month having won earlier at Newbury and Finley Marsh’s claim is a further plus as she drops in class.
