without the headgear this time/in first-time tongue strap, took advantage of a drop in the weights to resume winning ways, though that doesn't tell the whole story, this a typically lazy performance, looking the first beaten around halfway (matched at 120 in-running); held up, jumped left sixth, driven before next, headway under pressure home turn, challenged 2 out, hung left approaching last, stayed on to lead final 50 yds; while he's not likely to go up too much for this, his patchy profile makes him one to take on next time.
