Cocovic showed the benefit of an educational introduction at Loughrea, as having raced towards the rear of the field before keeping on into fourth at that Galway venue, a change in tactics for his re-appearance two weeks later saw him ridden more positively in Ballingarry last Sunday. Here, he raced up with a strong pace and eye-catchingly travelled best of all throughout, illustrating the high cruising speed that he possesses. A shake of the reins is all that was required to put the race to bed off the home bend, which he swiftly did in impressive fashion. Given how easily he brushed aside his rivals here in the quickest time on the card, 11 seconds quicker than the average on Good ground, suggests that he is a horse to be considered very seriously.
