This can go the way of WESTGATE WARRIOR, who showed improved form when making all at Nottingham in October before having excuses at the same course next time. He is taken to resume his progress making only his second start on all-weather, though Hint of Humour is respected in her bid for the 4-timer, with El Bufalo also considered.
