DUTIFUL SON makes most appeal dropping back down in class after a fourth at Lingfield in Class 2 company. He should have the measure of the returning Loyalty, not beaten far over a mile here back in April. Tournament has slipped down the weights without yet showing any improvement and the same comment applies to both My Target and Bold Prediction. Freddy With A Y landed a double over this trip in May and is back on a winning mark.
