SPIEKEROOG has demonstrated admirable staying abilities and can make full use of the step up to two miles at Wolverhampton.

Henry Cecil’s charge has deep stamina reserves and his lack of real pace caught him out when last in a trappy fourrunner affair at Haydock.

Although he was only beaten two lengths, Spiekeroog never looked like winning off a poor early gallop which turned into a sprint up the straight. It is best to put a line through that run as the Lomitas colt is much better judged on his facile seven-length victory in a weak maiden the time before.

Still relatively inexperienced with just four runs under his belt, Spiekeroog makes plenty of appeal on his first try on the all-weather surface.

Springwell Giant has made stealthy progress in three racecourse appearances and looks primed to strike as he switches back to turf at Nottingham.

Alan McCabe’s charge has been hindered by a lack of experience in three outings to date, fluffing the start in his first two outings before staying on for minor honours.

Dropped to claiming company last time, he finished fourth but made a much quicker start and the penny finally seems to be dropping with him.

Having his first try in handicap company, Springwell Giant looks the right type for what is a average contest in the gambull.co.uk Free £120 Bets – Pre Register Today Nursery.

Black Eagle made a promising start when fifth at Pontefract last week and can make a winning reappearance in the gambull.co.uk Online Betting Maiden Stakes.

The Cape Cross colt had plenty to learn in Yorkshire but there was much to like about his three-and-threequarter- length defeat, particularly as his jockey was far from hard on him.

Blue Noodles is on a roll at present and can make it a hattrick in the Comfort Controls 25 Years Bms Engineering Handicap at Brighton.

Far from the best event seen this season, this six-furlong heat nevertheless represents an excellent opportunity for David Evans’ charge to add to his wins at Chepstow and Wolverhampton.

Despite being raised 5lb, Blue Noodles is one to follow as he looked to have a little left in the locker.

The Snail scored two wins in as many days last week and the fact Evan Williams sends him out again at Ludlow should be noted. The six-year-old was a 22-length winner at Exeter last Wednesday while he triumphed by seven lengths at Wincanton just 24 hours later.

Connections admit The Snail is a tough horse to get right, but he is evidently firing on all cylinders at present and could be good value for a 7lb penalty.
