Analyis of the race

Almost certainly a weak bumper, with only one of those who had run having shown ability and none of the newcomers making great appeal, and the first two had it between them from three furlongs out.

FRONTIER DANCER had at least managed fourth placeon his debut here and confirmed that bit of promise, soon in front, making all and hanging on gamely.

However, he might well have been beaten had not debutant Ajimorag been let down by his inexperience, as he looked to be going the better over a furlong out, but he ran green, hanging in behind the winner and jumping the path in the closing stages. He is six years' old already so may have had one or two problems in the past, but he should improve for this experience.
