First Legion
Successful 2yo debut and later close up in a 6f York handicap (good to firm) last August; best effort since when beaten about 1l at Newmarket in April but the step up to 7f back at York last time wasn't a particular positive, even though he ran perfectly well in fifth of 14; major contender back at 6f on drying ground.

From the connections
“First Legion had breezed very well and was bought with a big reputation. He was a little bit keen in the middle of the race, but he picked up good. He came from a good breeze-up place and he'll improve on good, fast ground - Shane Foley, rider.”
