has had a fantastic first season with this yard and resumed winning ways from a mark 13 lb higher than his first of 4 wins in total in 2021; held up, travelled strongly, headway over 2f out, ridden over 1f out, stayed on to lead line; there's no reason he won't continue in top form and there could be even more to come.
