This wouldn't quite be a penalty kick for EXCELLENT TEAM as he's thrown away similar opportunities in the past, but a sharp two miles on decent ground is what he requires and he should be too good for these if on song after a break. Green Or Black will be more than capable of giving him a race if he can jump fluently on his hurdles debut and looks an interesting newcomer to the jumping game. Rabunda has a bit to prove now but the fact he's kept in training suggests all is not lost.
