Ask Dillon

He has obviously got a mountain to climb with Paisley Park, who looks a machine and will be incredibly hard to beat, on form, and official ratings tell you that he needs to progress a good deal to even get near the places. But you can pick holes in all of these bar the favourite, and my horse is at least an improver. He ran a career-best when second, giving away lumps of weight to the winner, at Sandown last time and I think there is a lot more to come from him. Of course, he faces a massive task here and is an outsider, but I will be playing my hand late and hopefully to nick a place and some prize money. The first-time cheek pieces could well help him a fair amount, too.
