Verdict

WHAT A WELCOME was back on song after a rare blip when third in the Shergar Cup Stayers last time despite not settling fully for a strange jockey. Reunited with regular pilot Joey Haynes, he's taken to return to winning form from a reduced mark, at the main expense of Seinesational, who was better than ever when second to Timoshenko here at the end of July. Themaxwecan is probably still progressing, and is sure to go well given his solid record.
