Analyis of the race

Another moderate contest and a first win since his sole previous strike in a bumper five years ago for POINT. He has had all sorts of problems and kept going bravely after storming clear a long way out.

Menelus, a winner on good to firm recently, made up plenty of ground on the winner from two out and though holding every chance at the last was just outbattled in the closing stages.
