Analyis of the race

Mark Johnston has a habit of winning this maiden and he did so yet again with TAJWEED, who fulfilled the promise he showed at Redcar last time with a workmanlike effort. In a fairly slowly-run race, he joined the leader once in line for home, brieflywent through a flat spot when the runner-up tackled him inside the final quarter-mile before asserting himself towards the finish. A scopey sort, he should be able to make his mark in handicap company.

Prince Kalamoun was produced to challenge thewinner, but he did not see out his race as well, and was firmly put in his place in the final half-furlong.

Legion D'Honneur, who looked as though this race would do him good, made just a fair reappearance. He will now be eligible for handicaps, which promise to serve him better.
