NENDRUM will be fancied to make amends for falling at the second last over track and trip a week ago as he was well clear of the rest at the time. He looks sure to go close with clear round while Golden Jeffrey also looks to have decent claims if lasting home n the back of a couple of placed efforts over 2m. Outcrop won over 2m1f at Sedgefield earlier and finished well ahead of Max Liebermann when third over a shorter trip here a fortnight ago while Surf And Turf missed an engagement at Huntingdon yesterday and has a conditional's 10lb allowance helping his cause in this.
