Analyis of the race

A wide-open affair in which there were still plenty in with chances turning for home, but it was PEGASUS PRINCE, tackling this trip for the first time, who stayed on best to gain an overdue first success. He had been hampered early when gambled-on for a 1m1f race at Wolverhampton last month, and showed here what he is capable of. He is lightly-raced and should be open to further improvement.

Ming Vase, who won a seller here last month but had been well-beaten on turf a fortnight ago, bounced back to form with a decent second, staying on past Sparky Vixen, who looked to be travelling best of all on the home turn but hung both ways under pressure. Sparky Vixen had won over a mile here earlier in the year and perhaps this longer trip just found her out.

Kentucky Bullet did not have the best of runs in the closing stages and is a bit better than he was able to show this time.
