AU - Ascot - Race 3

OUR PALADIN AL (6) continues to hint he's an above-average galloper, sticking on boldly to finish 0.9L off the winner over the mile 16 days ago. Now out to 1 ?m which won't be an issue and he maps for a perfect run along the inside. Nottle's 7lbs claim comes in handy and he can go one better. FLY WITH CAUTION (3) steps out in trip third-up after finishing behind Our Paladin Al last time out. It's been a while between wins, but he's hitting this peak now third-up after a long break. Should be close to the speed and can get back to winning ways. BATTLE COMMANDER (7) led and kicked away to beat Our Paladin Al last start over the mile. He steps back out to 1 ?m which is the query, though he should be able to dictate the tempo from his barrier. Will be hard to run down if he gets it all his own way again. OUR NEMESIS (5) will find this tougher but has to be included on recent form. ARCADIA PARK (2) can improve on the solid first-up effort with CJP back on board.
