Stick with unexposed juvenile now dropped in class

Foundation Man is still on fair mark 2.00 Leicester

Jonjo O’Neill’s nine-year-old comes into this contest chasing a hat-trick after backing up a 15-length victory on firm ground over 2m6½f here with a comfortable four-length victory over today’s rival Domtaline at Doncaster last time. That came over 2m3f and he should be suited by the extra furlong and return to this galloping track.

He is now 11lb higher than for the first of those wins, but won off this mark (127) at Wetherby in October 2014 and that came under Jason Maguire, who couldn’t claim.
