Analyis of the race

A strong gallop to this valuable handicap chase which was won in good style by STANDIN OBLIGATION under a fine ride from Timmy Murphy. Held up and kept wide, he crept into the race in the final mile and ran on in good style after the last. He stays 3m well, and according to his trainer, he won despite the ground for most of his wins have been on good or faster.

Getinbybutonlyjust also ran a fine race. He was ridden more prominently than the winner and went on five out, but although he was still in front over the last, he couldn’t quicken with the winner. This was his best run for some time and he should be winning soon. Another Rum was well behind most of the way but ran on past tiring rivals to take third ahead of Canada Street, who spoilt his chances with a few mistakes. Although he began to close on the leaders, going to the fourth last, he couldn’t find any more after the final fence.

front-running role, in sixth. Crackadee, who came into the race in good form, was never going and was pulled up, his rider reporting that he failed to act in the heavy ground.
