Witchry held up in rear, plenty to do when good headway from over 1f out, strong run to lead post
Kyllachy Storm held up in mid-division, ridden and headway over 1f out, led last strides, headed post
Trinculo led, clear over 1f out, ridden and caught last strides
Lordship steadied start, held up in rear, headway over 2f out, ridden over 1f out, kept on inside final furlong
Harrison´s Flyer always prominent, ridden and kept on same pace final furlong
Morse chased leaders, no headway final 2f
High Reach held up in touch, ridden well over 1f out, weakened well inside final furlong
Mafaheem went left start, towards rear, switched left just inside final furlong, never near leaders
Linda Green held up, switched to stands' rail, always behind
Barbar slowly into stride, always behind
George The Second chased leader 4f, soon weakened
Man Of Letters chased leaders over 3f
Thomas Lawrence dwelt, always behind
Decider held up in touch, weakened 2f out
Success for WITCHRY did not look likely over 1f out, but he found a nice turn of foot to get his head in front right on the line. Both his previous wins had been at 5f but this will open up a few more options
Kyllachy Storm's finishing position holds the bare from down, as he has yet to win in 15 attempts over a variety of trips and is ordinary.
Lordship has slipped to the mark he last won off and, as he won twice last summer in these types of races, there is every chance he will do so again.
Harriso''s Flyer seems to be gradually finding his form and possible needs sharp tracks like Bath and Brighton
