Analyis of the race
A competitive looking sprint and plenty came into the race with decent efforts to their credit last time, even if the highest rated was 6lb below the 100 ceiling. LOOK BUSY had been kept busy as a two-year-old, when she was tried at a higher level, and a step back up to Listed company could be on the cards after she won this handicap in the style of a horse who has more to give. Her rider took his time, and she found herself in acres of space when the field fanned out off the final bend. After takingit up a furlong from home, she was going away at the end. Connections will not be so hard on her this year, and have a Listed fillies' race back here in mind for her.
Piscean again tried to make up ground late on, a task that was always going to be difficult around here. He reminds in good heart, though.
Mey Blossom was put up 6lb for her half-length win last time. She ran another solid race and shaped as if an easy 6f may be within her range.
Hadaf had every chance from stall one but faded late on. Secret Asset was up to all sorts in the preliminaries and the antics would not have helped hischance.
