Memphis Man came out best of the rest to confirm his well-being.
Bel Cantor, just behind Tajneed last week, finished further behind him here.
Paris Bell ran much better than his finishing position might suggest, given that he met plenty of trouble near the rail and could never find enough daylight for long enough to raise his game.
