Notorious looked good on slow day

But there was a lot to like about the effort of three-year-old Notorious who skipped along the sloppy track in a good 51.17 seconds for an 800 metres gallop. Lekh Raj continues to show good form, galloping 400 metres in a handy 27.69 seconds, while Mr Hypocrit who has had a long lay-off, clocked 27.90 seconds for the same distance.
