Verdict
CLOTOG showed the benefit of his opening effort with a much better performance at Chester where he led for a long way before passed by the long odds-on Mutjaba. There's nothing of that winner's class here and he can go one better. Resumption was very green at Kempton back in April and has been given plenty of time to mature while Shenu failed to last out over 1m4f here after a promising debut over a mile at Newcastle. Zoom Tiger has been very disappointing since a good third at Newmarket in April.
