ALL-WEATHER Finals Day at Lingfield on Good Friday was neither as international nor as well-funded as the Dubai World Cup card, but it can still be considered a roaring success given the opposition it was still facing from some only a short while ago.

There was no Tryster in the Coral Easter Classic this year (he went on to finish a slightly unlucky third to Real Steel in Dubai), and in his absence, last year’s third Grendisar capped a superb AW season with success at odds on.
