Analyis of the race

A run-of-the-mill fillies' handicap but it could hardly have been won in easier style by SHANDELIGHT, who was dropping back in trip after failing to see out 2m last time. She was never in danger once hitting the front and lengthened away in pleasing style. Connections consider that she needs ground with cut in it, but they will have to get her out quickly, as the handicapper will not let this win go without a hefty hike.

Still Dreaming's only win came on the sand. Her turf record is now 0-9.

Adorabella, having her first run of the season, could only muster the one pace.
