ONE of the highlights of the weekend was the victory of Oh This Is Us, known to all at Richard Hannon’s yard as Otis, in the Group 3 Diomed Stakes at his third attempt and having looked on the downgrade last season.

The eight-year-old is what might be termed a twilight horse, in that he’s perennially too high in the handicap, but hard to place at pattern level, but he’s set about disproving both notions this season, showing himself every bit as good as ever in the process.
