Analyis of the race

It's difficult to see how the track could justify running this race given the conditions and it was hardly a surprise to see only two of the eight starters complete.

AMOREIGH was the one with the stamina to see out the test, but it's hard to know what he has achieved given that his rivals simply fell away one by one.

He's lightly raced for his age and recent form has not been very inspiring, but he travelled and jumped well, a key attribute in the conditions, and he drew clear of Roddy The Vet leaving the back for the final time.

Fisherman Jack lost touch with the front two down the back for the final time and it's hard to see him winning another race at his age.
