Crimson Fern held up in touch, headway to lead just inside final 2f, came clear inside final furlong, comfortably
Rocker chased leaders, ridden and every chance inside final 2f, kept on under pressure to hold narrow 2nd throughout final furlong but no chance with winner
Matterofact chased leaders, ridden and every chance inside final 2f, stayed on to dispute 2nd inside final furlong but never any chance with winner
Azygous chased leaders, ridden to challenge 2f out, weakened inside final furlong
Harrison´s Flyer ridden and pushed along towards rear halfway, never going pace to be competitive
Puskas soon pushed along, outpaced most of way
Peopleton Brook slowly into stride, ridden and some progress on outside 2f out, soon weakened
Trinculo soon led, headed and weakened inside final 2f
Rocker just got the better of a good battle for second with the winner's stablemate Matterofact, who won the corresponding race a year ago, but neither of them were any match at all for Crimson Fern.
