after just 4 days off, completed the hat-trick, better than ever in the process, this yard deserving of plenty of credit for turning him around, though he doesn't have a completely clean slate, looking a shade reluctant early, but no knocking him in the finish; slowly into stride, raced off the pace, headway over 2f out, led over 1f out, edged right, kept going well; he's already due to be 6 lb higher next time, pushing him back into a higher grade where he'll likely find life tougher.

turned in his best effort since joining this yard; in rear, good progress from 2f out, every chance inside final 1f, carried right by winner but also carried head awkwardly, kept on; he'll be of interest again, given a chance by the handicapper (rated higher still in France), and already a winner on all-weather, with a view to the winter.

ran creditably, just about backing up his Chester improvement, though unable to build on that back in a handicap, if anything leaving the impression that he wants the emphasis more on stamina, taking a bit of stoking up; in touch, shaken up over 2f out, kept on; he's worth another try at 1½m.
