Isla Pearl Fisher held up, headway halfway, outpaced over 4f out, kept on from 2f out, no impression

Over The Odds close up, left in lead after 5f, headed 5f out, soon beaten
Short Straw held up, driven and outpaced halfway, no chance after
Sugar Daddy in touch, steady headway halfway, weakened over 5f out

The winner COPPER SOUND was very green, running in snatches and wandering around in front, but knuckled down well to score driven out. He should improve, but might struggle with a penalty.
China House, a half-brother to Amberleigh House, was quite keen, and jinked left on the run up the hill, but stuck on well to finish second clear and may find a race.
