Verdict
Oscar Rose won twice in the autumn and again over hurdles on her reappearance but ran a shocker after another break at Worcester in July. DILIGENT appears to go from strength-to-strength and was very impressive at Newton Abbot just over two weeks ago. He can get the better of Yccs Portocervo, who is creeping up the weights again.
