Drops back in grade and may well enjoy the run of the race; respected

Dual C&D winner but may need a stiffer test now; wouldn't want this to be run at a dawdle
5 (3)	Rey De La Batalla Bay J:Paddy Bradley T:Simon Dow	J:Paddy Bradley T:Simon Dow	128	—	562593	75	96	81	9d	—	0W/0P 1 run	-5	17.4	0.83/1	10/3 23%
All four wins over 7f/1m on Polytrack; third here nine days ago and should again go well

Return to 1m should suit but a record of 0-27 since arriving in Britain is hard to ignore

Back off last winning mark but efforts since returned to the AW leave plenty to be desired

Has gone the wrong way since his successful debut; best watched on stable debut
