VALSAD'S truncated but promising 2022 campaign ended with a good third in a Class 2 handicap off this mark over 1¾m at Haydock in July. Dropping back in trip looks a good move and he may well have more to offer as a 4-y-o. Another who is likely to appreciate going back down in trip is Haarar, who probably found 2m too much of a test at Nottingham. He is second choice ahead of Matchless and Billy No Mates.
