Soft Falling Rain took on six useful Gr2 competitors in the Nayef Joel Stakes over the straight mile trip at Newmarket and powered home to win well, going away up the hill over the final furlong despite hitting the front early.
He showed conclusively that he needed that first run in England last month and returned to winning ways, taking his career record to 8 wins and 1 second from 9 starts. What's next for Soft Falling Rain? Perhaps he will take up a place in the Gr1 Queen Elizabeth II Stakes at Ascot in three weeks time.
