High Noon was a long way behind MARAJMAN when the Pogsons’ gelding got back to winning ways over course and distance two weeks ago and it’s difficult to see him reversing the form with his younger rival, despite the revised terms. Restandbethankful disappointed again at Stratford on Tuesday while Izzy's Champion has been so far unable of taking advantage of a tumbling mark and may have preferred an easier surface.
