Despite proving easy to back, VALEDICTORY produced a highly promising first effort when third in a maiden at Doncaster (1m) in September, finishing with a flourish as the penny dropped. The son of Cracksman rates the type to step forward significantly now his stamina is tested further as a 3-y-o and earns the vote ahead of similarly promising pair Push The Limit and Spanish Voice.
