Analyis of the race

A pleasing performance from CLASSIC DESCENT who had finished first over course and distance last November only to lose the race in the stewards' room. He made no mistake on his return as he was held up until brought through to lead over a furlong outand quickly spread-eagled these. He looks the sort that his trainer can excel with and it will be interesting to see what the handicapper does with him now.

E Major was claimer-ridden and still looks a little green. He was held up and kept on wellin the closing stages and might well improve during his three-year-old campaign.

Without Prejudice was all the rage on his debut and was soon travelling close to pace. He led over two furlongs out and then hung left from a furlong out and clearly didn't come up to expectations. He will know more next time but will have too.

Hurricane Harriet led until headed by the runner-up but is handicapped now and could also fare better in that grade at a modest level.
