      Verdict

      Dandy Spirit and Star Of Aria finished 1-2 at Wetherby but Shark Two One wasn’t beaten far in sixth, having been held up off the pace, and is better off with both. ENDERMAN is just a pound higher than when beaten under a length over course and distance last August. A strike-rate of 1-29 is slightly off-putting but he is not going to get many better chances to double his tally. Close Quarters now sports blinkers but Fantasy Navigator may be best of the rest.
