A quick rise through the ranks as a 3 year old saw Dragon Symbol improve at a rapid rate of knots. Winning a brace of novices over 6 furlongs, a low level handicap and finally a 5 furlongs conditions race.
He was just touched off by Rohaan in the Sandy Lane Stakes here before being first past the post in the Commonwealth cup, only to be demoted to 2nd for interference.
His form dipped thereafter for Archie Watson. A bold showing in a few group races has seen him placed but unable to win. A switch to Roger Varian didn’t immediately spark life into him but a drop in grade should help.
