Iguazu Falls took keen hold, chased leader after 2f, led over 2f out, shaken up and soon clear, ran on strongly
Fathsta switched left start, pulled hard and held up in midfield, ridden to chase winner well over 1f out, no impression on winner
Croi Mo Ri took keen hold, held up in midfield, effort and ridden 3f out, hung left and no progress 2f out, went 3rd towards finish
Dream Day led for 1f, chased leaders after, ridden and effort on inner 3f out, weakened well over 1f out
Film Maker took keen hold, led after 1f, ridden and headed over 2f out, soon outpaced by winner, weakened final furlong
Nice Wee Girl never going well in last pair, ridden and hanging left 3f out, never on terms
Nacho Libre slowly into stride, always behind
Fathsta is astonishingly tough, because this was his 25th race in little more than a year. Dropped in behind from his outside draw, he was inclined to run too keen and could have done with a faster pace, although his form did not entitle him to do any better than second in any case.
Nice Wee Girl never got into it and looked uncomfortable down the hill. Nacho Libre was always at the back of the field too. (GD)
