The Chris Waller-trained colt Paret scored a very good win, racing here on debut. He went back from his outside barrier (7) and settled nicely in last place in the seven-horse field, behind a good pace, before improving well, between runners, rounding the home turn. But he was blocked on straightening, eased deeper at the 200m and then came with a strong finish to win impressively. It was a very smart win and he looks a colt with a good future.
