Away slowly he was detached early and circled the whole field with a good finish to get third. There wasn't a pace collapse either - the Godolphin that won led throughout.
Back over here he was a non factor on the aw last month (the race was run at a crawl and he was never in it). At 10s/12s today I'm interested as there's no question he's well treated.
