He was emphatically reversing recent course-and-distance placings with Bond Playboy. In that earlier race, Jilly Why had helped force the pace, and he was clearly better suited by coming late on this occasion.
Bond Playboy may not have been suited by his wide draw, which meant that he saw plenty of daylight on the outside, but he still turned in a solid effort.
Blue Bird's Dream, second at 25-1 in a 7f maiden here last month, lacked the speed to be fully competitive over this trip but is worth keeping in mind for a handicap over 7f plus.
Darryll Holland reported that Almondillo lost his place on the bend.
