Nihal disappointed in his last run last term, but he had been in good heart previously and this was more like him. He stuck to his task well and though the winner had the call over him, he was clear second best.
Heureux was well beaten in the end and itcould have either been the trip or the fact that he was having his first run since October 21. He has to be worth another look.
