Natiain made all, ridden after 2 out, kept on strongly run-in
Minouchka soon prominent, effort and every chance 3 out to next, kept on under pressure run=in
Harlov chased leaders, outpaced before 4 out, no impression from next
Harrovian chased leaders to halfway, soon outpaced, no danger after
Hapthor behind, struggling 11th, never on terms
Kiora Bay chased leaders, outpaced when blundered 13th, soon beaten
Sorkatcheguy held up, blundered 7th, steady headway 10th, weakened from 12th
Noshinannikin took keen hold, in touch to halfway, soon struggling
Ocean Dancer held up, blundered badly and unseated rider 7th
Minouchka, winner of her last five starts, pestered the winner from a long way out, but the writing was on the wall between the final two fences and, hard though she tried, she could never prove Natiain's master.
