Icon Project raced keenly, tracked leaders, led 2f out, ridden over 1f out, just under 1 length up when edged left and tightened up rival inside final furlong, kept on well
Factotum led, ridden and headed 2f out, still just under 1 length down when not much room and snatched up inside final furlong, eased when unable to fully recover towards finish
Wells Lyrical tracked leaders, ridden over 3f out, weakened over 2f out
Dolly Penrose prominent, challenging 3f out, ridden and weakened over 1f out
Spiritonthemount raced keenly, ridden over 4f out, soon lost place, no danger after
Lisbon Lion held up, ridden over 3f out, no impression
Tamerlano in rear, ridden over 4f out, never on terms
Princess Flame pushed along over 3f out, always behind
In a race run at just a modest pace, she pulled hard early on, though she moved through to lead over 1f out. She hung left under pressure, was driven out to score and is capable of improvement, but she will need to step up a fair bit on this if she is to make her mark in Group or Listed company.
These two finished clear of the 75-rated Wells Lyrical, who will find easier maidens, and Dolly Penrose, who is rated 72.
