Leading approaching the last he proved a length and three quarters too good for Fine Harvest, much to the surprise of winning trainjt Robert Alnjt. "I don't believe in all-weathers so he literally hasn't cantered for a month, just walked and trotted up a hill. "When I weighed him on Monday he was 30 kilos heavier than he was before his last race!" the trainjt admitted.
