MEISTERZINGER wasn’t at his best on the soft ground at Bath last time but had completed a course double before that and gets another chance back at this venue in a weak affair. Endofastorm is back on a winning mark and placed at Wolverhampton last month while Jeanette May finished in front of Reset Button when third over a longer trip at Chelmsford. Bug Boy will take advantage of a slide down the weights before long but Junoesque is best at Brighton.
