Saxford made all, ridden and edged left inside final furlong, held on well
Raimond Ridge prominent, effort and every chance over 1f out, edged left, kept on, held towards finish
Knavesmire went left start, close up, effort over 2f out, edged left over 1f out, kept on same pace final furlong
Another Luke in touch, headway 2f out, ridden and one pace final furlong
Dotty´s Brother in touch, outpaced halfway, no impression from over 1f out
Oriental Rose with winner until weakened over 1f out
Mosspaul hampered start, always behind, lost touch from halfway
Compton Ford went left start, pulled hard in rear, ridden and struggling from halfway
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.
