Analyis of the race
Impending motherhood proved a boon for ENFORCE, who after being tested in foal to Sir Percy proceeded to rout the opposition, showing that the ground had dried up on a warm day.
Always travelling much the best, the winner ranged up to Lady Gloria two furlongs out and when let down quickly skipped clear under William Buick, with Lady Gloria keeping on to finish a clear second in front of the disappointing Sweet Lilly.
Enforce, a winning hurdler, had shown promise in two Listed fillies' races last autumn and then changed hands at the December mares' sale. With 100 days in which to campaign her while in foal, trainer Lucy Wadham may look towards the Windsor Forest Stakes at Royal Ascot.
Lady Gloria carried at more or less the same level sheleft off in 2007, with a cracking run in defeat. Winner of a 9f Listed contest in France on her final start last year, she was burdened with a penalty but advertised the fine form of her stable by easily beating off the rest of the field.
Nans Joy is effective in the soft and turned round Kempton form with Chantilly Tiffany, though her attempt to make all never looked like paying off.
Chantilly Tiffany saw her Kempton form boosted by Heaven Sent at Newmarket but ran disappointingly.
