TRADESMAN made it two wins at this course from his last 3 starts when scoring cosily here a fortnight ago and he is taken to add to his tally. The 4-y-o can see off the challenge of Grand Duchess Olga, who opened her account at this C&D on her latest outing, while Louaizeh could still have more to offer and also merits consideration.
