Held up in last, not fluent 1st, went 3rd at 6th, 2nd going well approaching 4 out, ridden to lead before 2 out, stayed on well, ridden out op 7/4 tchd 5/4
Tracked leaders, left in close 2nd 5th, lost 2nd approaching 4 out, remained in modest 3rd until 3 out, soon weakened, tailed off op 10/1 tchd 7/1 and tchd 11/1
This could be all about ISTIMRAAR on first run for Dan Skelton and no surprise should he leave his form when last seen well behind him. Dreyfus is certainly capable of better than shown and can follow the selection home with Templier taken for minor honours.
