Puy D´Arnac held up in touch, smooth headway over 3f out, led over 1f out, pushed out
Aureate held up in rear, headway on bit 3f out, effort over 1f out, ridden to chase winner inside final furlong, no impression
Aleron tracked leaders, headway on inner over 3f out, ridden along 2f out, kept on same pace approaching final furlong
Hernando´s Boy tracked leaders, smooth headway 4f out, led over 2f out, soon ridden and headed well over 1f out, driven and kept on same pace inside final furlong
Mister Arjay led, ridden along 4f out, headed over 2f out and gradually weakened
Thewhirlingdervish held up towards rear, headway 4f out, chased leaders well over 2f out, soon ridden and weakened overe 1f out
Hugs Destiny prominent, effort and close up over 3f out, soon ridden and weakened over 2f out
Kames Park slowly into stride, always in rear
Wild Fell Hall close up, ridden along over 5f out, soon lost place and behind
Aureate, from a stable in good form, was stepped up in trip here and ran a sound race, albeit without being able to get to grips with the winner.
Mister Arjay may have needed his comeback run, a remark that also applies to veteran Thewhirlingdervish, who ran well for a long way.
