EXHORTATION looked all over the winner when leading at this trip on his reappearance over 7f here but was caught close home by Suehail. He may not be the most straightforward of rides but has plenty of pace and this could be his day. Multitasking started off last term very well but ran moderately on his last couple of starts while Tubbertown King let his supporters down on his final start at Bellewstown. Feathers And Bows produced a cracking performance behind Wave here in October and a repeat would be good enough though she hasn't come close to that form in her two starts this campaign. She was a neck behind Wasabi's House when they occupied the places over 5f here in November and the latter made a fair reappearance behind the odds-on Ahaaly over the C&D last month.
