Paddy A has proved a model of consistency all year, and posted his third win of 2018 with a strong staying effort at Haydock Park under William Buick.
The early fractions looked strong, and Paddy A had to race hard from the top of the straight to get on top, but once hitting the front inside the final 2f, the result was never in doubt.
The final margin over Takbeer was a length and a half, and as long as the handicapper is fair to him, Paddy A should continue to be competitive in this grade and over a distance of ground – he’s very genuine.
