Comments in running

Ormello confidently ridden, held up in strongly run race, smooth headway 4 out, led run-in, readily

Tom´s Toybox close up, led 4th and maintained decent gallop, headed run-in, not pace of winner

Bestofthebrownies held up in touch, effort before 3 out, weakened after last

Divex prominent, went second before 4 out, soon ridden, weakened from next

Hush Tiger towards rear, driven and outpaced halfway, never on terms

Jefertiti in touch, driven halfway, weakened from 8th

Stormy Lord set decent gallop to 4th, prominent until weakened before 4 out

Yankee Holiday prominent, blundered and lost place 4th, no danger after, pulled up before 4 out

Good Old Days not fluent in rear, pulled up before 4 out




Analyis of the race

A strong gallop to this handicap chase and ORMELLO came late to lead after the last and score driven out. He's fairly exposed, but he goes well on this better ground and having had a break before his previous run, he may well follow up even though he's pretty high in the weights now.

Tom's Toybox did well because he helped set the gallop, but kept on well and is better than the bare form.

Bestofthebrownies, a good fourth at Aintree last week, was held up and travelled well, but he made a mistake four out and couldn't pull out any more from the second-last.
