Hi the prince. Old Beau did look well above himself in the mounting yard before the race, and obvious would need the run. A bit slow out from a wide alley, he settled around 2nd / 3rd last on the fence. Coming to the turn he would have been around 9lens off the lead. Move out wide as they straightened up, made a long sustained run about four / five horses out, to be beaten 2.75len. Probably looking for a bit of distance this campaign. Rated his run around 1.75len below his best to-date.
