Analyis of the race
HARVEST JOY took advantage of a dropping mark to pull well clear on the uphill run to the line. Her trainer John Gallagher explained that the filly has endured pelvic problems.
Prime Number acted on this ground and looked a big threat when making a steady run to overhaul early pacesetter Arturius. However, just as he looked set to score, Harvest Joy arrived on the scene with a wet sail.
