Plum Pudding made all, ridden clear from over 1f out
Dingaan tracked leaders, raced keenly, went 2nd over 1f out, stayed on same pace
Big Noise held up, headway halfway, chased winner over 2f out until ridden over 1f out, no extra
Purus chased leaders, outpaced over 2f out, hung left over 1f out, stayed on inside final furlong
Jedburgh slowly into stride, held up, headway over 1f out, soon ridden, weakened inside final furlong
Ivory Lace held up, ridden over 2f out, weakened over 1f out
Phluke chased leader until ridden over 2f out, weakened over 1f out
Forest Dane held up, headway halfway, ridden over 2f out, soon weakened
Dingaan, from a stable in form, ran his best race this term and kept on without having a chance with the winner but could soon find a race at a similar level. Big Noise was all the rage in the market but he put in a disappointing effort. He had been held up and travelled well but when asked to go after the leader over a furlong out, his run soon flattened out. He had looked an improving individual last season and is better than he showed.
