Crystal Capella dwelt and pushed along to track leaders, headway to lead over 4f out, shaken up over 2f out, ridden clear approaching final furlong
Herrera behind, ridden along over 4f out, good headway on outer over 3f out, ridden and hung left 2f out, stayed on well under pressure inside final furlong, took 2nd near finish
Maha Dubai tracked leaders, headway over 2f out, ridden and chance when edged left well over 1f out, soon driven and kept on same pace
Gulch´s Rose close up, effort 3f out, ridden over 2f out and every chance until driven over 1f out and soon one pace
Josephine Malines tracked leaders, headway 4f out, ridden along 3f out, soon driven and outpaced
Volvoretas Rainbow chased leaders, pushed along halfway, soon ridden and weakened 4f out
Stones Of Venice always in rear
Fluoree led, ridden along and headed over 4f out, soon weakened
Herrera ran on to take second, shaping well enough to suggest there is a small race in her, while Maha Dubai was held up and proved one-paced in the straight. She didn't look entirely at home on the ground.
Josephine Malines has a mark of 73, but she disappointed in handicaps last season and probably flatters here. She wouldn't be the best guide to the form, for she showed no particular promise on her debut for her present connections.
