Save for a below-par display at Lingfield where a change of tactics were perhaps to blame, THIS GUY has proved consistent since joining this yard and is taken to deservedly open his account at the twelfth time of asking. Bold Optimist was just behind Arctic Steps here last month but now enjoys a handy pull at the weights with that rival and he is feared most.
