Analyis of the race

More, and stronger evidence that there was a quicker strip of ground hard against the stands' rail as MANGO MUSIC hugged it to make all at a strong pace. She has plunged down the weights and took full advantage with the ground drying out in her favour. Winless for 20 months, she was winning off a mark 12lb lower than her last success, but the feeling is that she got both the run of the race and best ground.

Savile's Delight continues at the top of his game but he has edged up the handicap in his salad days and again edged left under pressure, while only just failing to overcome racing wider out.

Billy Red is coming down the ratings and showed a bit more than recently to suggest he is getting to a winnable mark.

Linda Green found the ground drying out against her and she was stuck out wide, buffeted by the wind and raced more prominently than usual. She can prove this run all wrong back on softer ground.
