The seven-year-old already has Listed and Group 3 wins on his cv and now goes to York next month for the Duke of York Stakes.
The runner-up again ran with credit and certainly holds his own in minor stakes company. He looked set to score after taking over approaching the final furlong, but was swamped by the winner in the closing stages.
Lafi will have benefited greatly from this run and could again be a force in the big mid-summer sprints, while Pawan was outclassed, but again ran an honest race to collect some prize-money
