Fathey made all, ridden and edged left inside final furlong, ran on strongly
Officer Mor prominent, effort and chance over 1f out, kept on under pressure final furlong, not reach winner
Bragging Rights close up, every chance from halfway, one pace when baulked inside final furlong
Snow Bay dwelt, took keen hold and soon with leaders, every chance when not clear run, switched sharply right and bumped inside final furlong, no extra
Going Time took keen hold, close up, ridden and outpaced over 1f out, rallying when hampered inside final furlong, not recover
FATHEY looked in need of the run but led all the way, scrambling home after being strongly challenged. He edged right and hampered fourth-home Snow Bay but was allowed to keep the race with his jockey given a two-day careless riding ban.
Officer Mor has a dirt sprint pedigree and looks a decent sort. He appeared on the outside and kept on nicely without troubling the winner.
Bragging Rights is another who should make the grade. He held every chance when bumped inside the final furlong and is bred to be effective over a lot further.
Going Time took the eye in the paddock. Close up, he was outpaced over a furlong out and was rallying when snatched up well inside the final furlong.
