House Of Lords in rear, headway 4f out, chased leaders and hung left over 1f out, stayed on again inside final furlong

Mahadee in rear and soon pushed along, stayed on and hung left over 1f out, switched left and kept on again inside final furlong
Miss Jolyon in rear, ridden and some headway over 2f out, never going pace to be competitive
Resplendent Light chased leaders, ridden 3f out, weakened from 2f out
Boy On A Swing chased leaders until ridden 3f out, weakened over 2f out
Higgy’s Boy still has to win a race but his consistency is doing him no favours with the handicapper. He saw out this slightly longer trip well enough.
Greylami was the other one travelling as well as the winner at the top of the straight, but he was slightly short of room as he made his move. He then hung left before staying on when it was all over down the stands’ side. He has not quite lived up to the promise of his good maiden win here.
House Of Lords looked uneasy on the track and also hung when put under pressure, while not impressing as an out-and-out stayer.
It’s My Day was worst of those to hang, nearly running off the track stands’ side up the straight on this reappearance.
