It's Dubawi's year and we're just living in it.

I'm not willing to say Makfi hates Ascot quite yet. He had an excuse when running there poorly last time and yet again, he didn't seem 'right' yesterday, wanting to hang when the pressure was put on him to go forward. On form he had every right to toy with that field.

Slightly disappointing that what probably is just a genuine Gr2 horse in Poets Voice won the QEII.

On this showing you'd have to say that Canford Cliffs would have won as he pleased.
