The application of cheekpieces really did the trick for this son of Al Kazeem, who also seemed to enjoy dictating from the front. A good chance he’ll get his own way upfront again with only John Betjeman a possible contender for wanting to make the running. A rise of 6lbs seems pretty fair as he was well on top at the finish last time and he’s potentially still a good deal ahead of the handicapper. Off a fairly low mark and he’s taken to follow up.
