Analyis of the race

The ground was changed to good to soft, soft in places, though this was run in a similar time to the first race on Thursday.

This was a weakish event, and CLASSIC MOON, who had the best form on offer after his third at Downpatrick last time, scored in fine style. He was always going well, and after moving up on the bridle going to the second last, ran on to win eased down.

Justtheoneforyou, who looks a real chasing sort, made the running and though he kept on to finish second, he hung left under the whip after the last hampering Dancing Mist and their placings were reversed.
