Bahamian Kid, who was beaten 25 lengths in the 2,000 Guineas, found this much more suitable, but after going on in the straight, he edged left and was caughtclose home. He should find a race. Hardanger shaped well on his debut, for he missed a beat at the start, but travelled up well to have every chance a furlong out. He'll improve, and can find a race.
