 Revoque had looked the likely winner in the straight but faded badly in the closing stages.The performance was explained when the colt was revealed to have been suffering from a viral infection which affected many of the horses in Chapple-Hyam's stable.The effects of the virus, and a recurring problem with lameness meant that Revoque was off the course for almost four months before reappearing in a minor stakes race at Doncaster in September.
