FATHSTA found the return to this trip to his liking and appeared to handle his Kempton debut well. He is on a high enough mark, however, and a replication of the form is not guaranteed.Asian Power ran well. Up there from the off, he stuck to his task well and was only just run out of it in the end. His turn shouldn’t be long coming.
Premier Danseur was hampered by the winner when held 1f out. He handled the surface well enough to warrant another chance on it. This was a pleasing seasonal debut and he will come on for the run. The same sentiments apply to Incomparable, who faded 1f out on his all-weather and seasonal bow.
