Maggie Kate chased leaders, went 2nd over 2f out, challenged under pressure over 1f out, led inside final furlong, kept on
Firespin steadied start, dropped in towards rear, headway and switched right well over 1f out, ran on well final furlong, went 2nd near finish, not reach winner
Mac Dalia led, ridden just over 2f out, headed inside final furlong, no extra last 100yds
Sazerac raced in midfield, headway well over 2f out, ridden 2f out, chased leaders 1f out, keeping on same pace when switched right well inside final furlong
Wicksy Creek took keen hold, in touch in midfield on outer, ridden 2f out, outpaced over 1f out
Planet Paradise towards rear, ridden and effort 2f out, kept on but never pace to reach leaders
Forever Changes in touch in midfield, ridden well over 2f out, soon outpaced and beaten
Maahe always towards rear, ridden over 3f out, never dangerous
Honest Value chased leader until over 2f out, soon driven, weakened well over 1f out
Stoneacre Pat very slowly away, always behind
She could not lead as Mac Dalia was quick out and overcame her high draw to race into a clear lead. She kept battling away under her big weight and is another getting help from the handicapper, but she was nailed for second on the line.
Firespin was taken in behind off the strong pace and had to switch out into the straight to get a run. She ran on strongly without threatening the winner. She again showed her liking for the surface after getting bogged down on soft turf and should lose her maiden tag soon off herlowly mark.
Maahe and Stoneacre Pat were big disappointments with the latter slowly away and always trailing, being ridden along and outpaced throughout.
