Verdict
Rated 70, Vandad sets only a moderate standard and is thoroughly exposed after 17 failed attempts. Seesawing placed at Kempton on his belated debut but is conceding weight to the three-year-old DIAMONDS DANCING, who will be straighter for a recent outing at Windsor having finished runner-up at Newcastle back in April. Simply Slew finished a bit closer at Wolverhampton last time but Swift Pusey has shown nothing so far.
