Analyis of the race

On the face of it this did not look a performance much to write home about as the odds-on EXPENSIVE DETOUR made rather hard work of coming out on top with nothing to spare. However, he did not have the best of draws and trainer Linda Stubbs's husbandsaid that the colt was only 65 per cent fit and that he is now under consideration for a Group 3 in Germany.

Miss Taboo, from a stable in form, was rated 50lb below the winner, but she had had run well last time and gave the winner plenty to thinkabout here and she is improving.

Swift Princess was having only her second run and first of the current term and it was a bit of a concern that she was visored for the first time. She did not appear to be entirely happy with the visor or it may just have been greenness, but she was really getting her act together in the closing stages and ran on well.

Seaton Snooks was blinkered for the first time and poorly drawn, but was close enough if good enough 2f out before keeping on at only one pace. It was a relatively improved effort.

Musical Parkes was making her racecourse bow and showed some promise. She was green and several times had daylight run out on her, but she kept on in the closing stages.

Mambomoon was another not too well drawn and, though blinkered for the first time, he needed plenty of perseverance from his rider to finish as close as he did, having had every chance.

Rose Of Inchinor, a former inmate of the Marcus Tregoning stable, was having her first run for seven months and showed speed up in the van until approaching the final furlong.
