All credit to the novice PRESENTING EXPRESS, who made it four from four since his return to fences with easily hisbest performance yet. Having started his run off 80 off a lowly affair at Folkestone, he won off 86, 99 and now 111. What's more, he overcame several mistakes here in this much hotter company and over the bigger fences before jumping to the front three out, which makes his win all the more commendable. He could go to Aintree.
Parsons Legacy was always prominent and chased the winner home without threatening to get back at him. Having only his third run of the season, this was easily his best effort.
Bounce Back ran better here, but is not the force he was. The same probably applies to Rodalko, although he is still only eight and this wasn't at all a bad effort after such a long absence.
*Paul Moloney reported that Harrycone Lewis was unsuited by the ground.
