Lexi's Boy was third in a better race at Haydock after getting off the mark at Ayr when Cadore was well behind. He should win more races but it may be asking a lot of the four-year-old to give 8lb to SUSTAINABILITY, who looked a real mudlark when grinding out a seven-length success at Uttoxeter on New Year's Eve and will be staying on when most of the others here have cried enough. Maybe I Wont is likely to find conditions too testing and Behindcloseddoors has disappointed this season.
