Exhortation can come up trumps
The son of Zamindar was well beaten on his only outing to date, at Leopardstown in September, but showed enough to warrant the vote in this company.
He set a strong gallop and there was never any possibility it could be maintained for all of the seven furlongs. From the furlong pole, Exhortation began to struggle and he eventually finished five lengths and two lengths third behind Akeed Mofeed and Athens.
