back on all-weather, not only revived but proved better than ever as he opened his account for the year, the refitting of blinkers (in which he did all his winning last season) evidently having a big positive effect, as did a forceful ride that meant he never saw another rival, the race going his way in that respect, though he was by no means dawdling in front; soon led, kicked on over 2f out, in command straight, kept going well; likely to continue in form.

continues in good nick and was better than the bare result, well off the pace turning for home and making up quite a lot of ground; dropped out, travelled well, headway under pressure over 1f out, ran on, never nearer, left with too much to do; he's holding his form well and should be on the premises again next time.
