Ballynure led 1st, headed 6th to next, headed briefly 2 out, kept on strongly to go clear from last
Toy Gun prominent, effort before 3 out, led briefly next, no extra from last
Kalic D´Alm held up, pushed along 4 out, rallied next, no chance with first two
Tipp Top held up, ridden after 4 out, never reached leaders
Hardybuck towards rear, hit 5th, never on terms
Athollbrose chased leaders until weakened before 3 out
Reckless Venture midfield, pushed along after 4 out, weakened next, tailed off when pulled up before last
Woodview not fluent, led to 1st, led 6th to next, soon driven, weakened 3 out, pulled up next
Norminster not fluent, prominent until lost place 3rd, no chance final circuit, pulled up before last
Lago midfield, driven after 4 out, weakened before next, tailed off when pulled up before last
Westmorland always behind, tailed off when pulled up before last
Oliverjohn behind, struggling 5 out, never on terms, pulled up before next
The Miner midfield, struggling 4 out, tailed off when pulled up before 2 out
Raised 9lb for that success, he ran out another ready winner, making most and staying on strongly from the second last. He's in fine form, but seems to need testing ground, so may have limited opportunities in the short tram.
The pair were clear of Kalic D'Alm, who plugged on for third with Tipp Top a well-beaten fourth.
