A great ride from Jimmy to switch Rousing Encore and make his challenge up the inside.

ROUSING ENCORE had dropped to a good mark and benefited from a good pace to win for the first time since October, with his rider’s decision to take him to the far side paying off.”

“Jimmy [Sullivan] gave ROUSING ENCORE a lovely ride. We thought we were maybe drawn on the wrong side, he likes some cover but we didn’t want to be too far back because it’s hard to make up ground on a fast track on fast ground. Jimmy edged over onto the rail and the horse put his head down and battled well for him. There are plenty of decent six-furlong races for us to go at.”
