Analyis of the race

Just a fair gallop to a race consisting of mainly exposed performers.

It was a decent effort by BLUE SPINNAKER considering he came from some way back and won going away by six lengths for most of those who featured at the finish raced much closerto the pace. He won well last week at Doncaster, and he was 6lb better in with his penalty today than he will be next week, but he'll face another rise after this.

Fourth went to Getrah, who ran creditably from his high draw, though he hung left in the straight.

Nok Twice shaped quite well back in seventh, as he came from behind to be nearest at the finish.
