Verdict

A weak contest with all of these upped in distance. LIMITED ABILITY has lived up to his name so far but he did finish closer upped to 1m4f at Kempton in first-time cheekpieces and is a half-brother to winner over today’s trip. Got Carter disappointed over 1m5f last time but The Churchill Lad struggled in better company here and Scottish Dancer is another dropping down in class.
