There's definitely a bigger performance in HANG IN THERE, who travelled with purpose until his stamina was stretched at Newbury a month ago. Eased a further 2 lb and back over 2m, he could well be the answer to this tricky puzzle, with the Dan Skelton-trained pair Cadzand and Crooks Peak just a couple of potential threats.
