Arctic Desert took keen hold, tracked leaders, ridden over 2f out, driven approaching final furlong, stayed on well to lead last 100yds
Moral Code led, ridden along and headed 3f out, driven over 1f out, rallied to have every chance inside final furlong, no extra towards finish
Cleveland pulled hard, close up, led 3f out, ridden well over 1f out, driven entering final furlong, headed and no extra last 100yds
Pawn In Life held up in touch, headway 2f out, soon ridden and kept on inside final furlong, nearest finish
Todwick Owl chased leaders, effort over 2f out, soon switched left and ridden well over 1f out, no impression
Elusive Warrior close up, ridden along halfway, weakened over 2f out
ARCTIC DESERT had been running creditably in plating company and the fact that he was able to prevail, keeping on under pressure to get up in the final 100 yards, is a clue to the modest level of the form.
Moral Code made the early running and got back into contention in the straight. He was not at all disgraced off a stiffish mark.
Pawn In Life had been well held on his two previous outings and his relative proximity from 6lb out of the handicap is another clue to the modestnature of the form.
Todwick Owl was again below his best, while first-time blinkers did not do the trick for Elusive Warrior.
