Analyis of the race

PSYCHIATRIST handled a 10lb jump for his Warwick success in a conditional jockeys' race to seize advantage of the early and costly mistake of favourite Tampa Boy. Relishing the drying ground, he was always in the box position under Jamie Moore and once grabbing Princess Flame rounding the bottom bend, was always in command. According to his trainer, Julia Tooth, he must have left-handed courses and may have one more run before his summer break.

Tampa Boy's supporters knew they were in trouble after he made a bad mistake at the second. From that point he was always having to be pushed along to keep tabs on the leaders. To his credit he kept responding but, though narrowing the gap in the straight, never looked like reeling-in Psychiatrist.

Quaystone Lady struggled on for minor money while Princess Flame, Cilla Black and Storm Surge all fell away disappointingly.
