I thought a lot of this one when I watched him on his debut at Musselburgh. He was distinctly green in the preliminaries, and looked as if the race would do him some good, but he rattled out of the stalls and stayed in front with a bit to spare. Just Past Andover, Polski Max and Rated have all one since, suggesting the race had some depth to it.
Storm Moon’s next race seemed a slightly odd choice, but he once again showed plenty of zip to win at Southwell. One I had earmarked for Royal Ascot and this could be a steeping stone.
