Formscan - This probably isn't quite as open as the numbers would suggest and it looks best to stick with BLACK ENDEAVOUR. Mark Rimell's gelding brought up a second career triumph in narrow fashion at Doncaster and the runner-up has won since so a 4lb rise might underestimate him. C&D winner Strike has a chance from 5lb below his last winning mark and spare a thought for Thunderous Love, who won this 12 months ago, albeit she was in better form at the time.
