Mooretown Lady could reappear in today's Group 1 Tattersalls Gold Cup in the hope of getting into the money. She made headway from the back of the field over the last couple of furongs and stayed on to snatch second place close home. She has managed only one win in 23 attempts but has many decent placed efforts to her credit, this one arguably the best.
Cheyenne Star, well beaten in the Athasi Stakes here on her reappearance early this month, was attempting to win this event for the second consecutive year. She tracked the leaders and had every chance from two furlongs out. Second and unable to make any impression on the winner inside the final furlong. she was run out of the runner-up spot close home.
She's Our Mark, successful at this level and at this trip on yielding ground at Leopardstown last season, had made an encouraging return when third in the Athasi Stakes here early this month. She made a forward move two furlongs out but could make little impression from over a furlongs out. [TOH]
