OUT OF BREATH never looked like catching the winner at Windsor on his debut but did well to finish second given a slow start left him with plenty of ground to make up. He can confirm running with Good Times Too and go one better. Charlemaine made his debut in France last month and finished a modest third at Saint-Cloud but the newcomer Beignet looks a bigger threat. The latter is related to several winning stablemates including the useful Tomily and preferred to the other Hannon runner Ivor and David Evans duo Spiritulist and Hypochondriac.
