Analyis of the race

A juvenile maiden in which the Brocklesby form came under the spotlight, and though SAXFORD came out of that race, he was only ninth that day, having raced up the far side. This time he broke well, made most of the running under the stands' side railand ran on in good style in the final furlong.

Raimond Ridge, who still looked a bit green, was niggled at halfway, but he challenged the winner away from the rails and kept on. This was an improvement on his debut run at Folkestone and he should improve again.

These were clear of Dotty's Brother, who came out best of the newcomers.
