Few make any appeal and Castlerea Tess is upped 5lb after returning the the shock 25/1 winner over track and trip last time. But it was also a much better effort from third-placed JUPITER on that occasion with first-time blinkers seemingly bringing improvement and Alex Dunn’s charge gets the vote to reverse running. Mad Endeavour was placed at Goodwood last time but that was in soft going while Cool Strutter was third off today’s mark at Brighton last month and Secondo ran well the last time he raced over track and trip in May. Jaganory won on last year’s card though that was over 5f.
