Scuba could not quite hold the winner's challenge, but he stuck on and it was a decent first run since September.
Al Rayanah, who lost ground at the start, kept on in the closing stages without looking likely to get there, whileCopper King was finding things a bit quick on the turn, but then he did stay on and it was a better effort than of late.
Jabraan did not appear to be suited by the step back up in trip.
