Endeavor is back on a winning mark but his last four victories have come at Kelso. Gowran third City Line is still winless after 30 attempts over hurdles but there are possibilities about another maiden, Pulpitarian, and Super Collider finished well ahead of Hunters Belt when chasing home Bordoni at Hexham. TIRADIA keeps climbing the weights but is holding his form well and John Jenkins wouldn't have sent him up from Hertfordshire if he didn't fancy his chances. The seven-year-old can win again as Toledo Gold has a lengthy absence to overcome.
