Analyis of the race
A race in which very few looked like getting competitive as the front pair dominated.
MARBLEHEAD is a habitual pacesetter and, surprisingly, they let him have his own way, with nothing but the second trying to keep tabs on him.
What would havehappened if they had taken him on is anybody's guess, but there must be a question mark over the bare form.
Why Connie, bumped along in the straight, was a spent force when getting the second-last slightly wrong.
Ask Again could plug on at only the one pace.
