Rajayoga was stepping right up in distance on his first outing since last September and he seemed to see it out alright. However as it was mainly daylight back to the third he is going to be put up with the winner. It's In The Stars was placed again and has not won since his bumperdays, giving the impression he is not the easiest to train.
