A weakish handicap for the grade, and one lacking in progressive sorts, though in its context the result looks solid enough, Jay Kay making all. JAY KAY with a fully-fledged rider back in the saddle, went one better than last time as he ended a long losing run back under more familiar tactics, just about better than ever in the process, no mean feat as an 8-y-o; made all, travelled strongly, shaken up over 2f out, ridden out; recent strike rate tempers enthusiasm of a follow up.
