The winner, whose last success came over course and distance in December off a 2lb lower mark, has shown mixed form this year and he's not the most reliable, but he responded well to his riders urgings here to burst through and lead close home.
Etain stayed on well into second having been in touch throughout, and she built on two quiet starts so far this term.
Alonso De Guzman had an uncontested lead for the most part, but hecouldn't sustain his effort in the straight, while Qaasi travelled well out the back, but he didn't really pick up when the gap opened up in the straight.
