Analyis of the race

The course was railed off the same as last week, with false railing stands side halving the course early in the straight before tapering back to six yards out at the line.

Many of these are most effective on softer ground and thrive off a strong pace.The previous week's trend of drifting midtrack to inside-rail in the finish continued in this.

SAVILE'S DELIGHT, a shade unlucky last week, made handsome amends, but not in expected style, being awkward out of the stalls, and held up before bursting through midtrack before holding on well in the final 100 yards.

Adantino, who won this in 2006 off a 7lb-lower mark, again showed he goes well fresh and had conditions more in his favour than some of his close rivals. He looks plenty high enoughin the ratings.

The veterans Linda Green and Chatshow go particularly well here and did so again, with Linda Green especially eyecatching, as she enjoys plenty more cut in the ground but still went close, finishing nearest the inside rail.

Rydal Mount ran better than the bare form on this seasonal return. He was hemmed in against the stands rail before being switched sharply going to the final furlong and staying on stoutly to suggest that he would have been much nearer with a clearer run.
