Verdict

The veteran BATALLION is taken to register his fifth victory on the AW by taking this competitive conditions stakes. Jamie Osborne's charge ran better than the bare result suggests in Listed company last time and he can see off Victory Bond who was the winner of a similar race to this at Chelmsford last time out. Last years winner Calling Out probably found the trip on the sharp side last time out and he can finish third today.
