A fluent success for WINDSOR BOY, who had run well in better company at Wincanton in November and appreciated this slightly lower grade. He was sat just off the pace as habitual front-runner Hakim took them along at a decent gallop, but a good leap at the third-last sent Windsor Boy to the front and he pulled clear. His confidence should have been boosted by this success.

Alcopop was soon chasing the leader and ran well enough to suggest he could make his mark against slightly lesser opposition.
