Comments in running

Ouzbeck tracked leaders going well, not fluent 3 out, soon recovered and good jump to lead next, pushed out from last

Contact Dancer led to 7th, close up, led 3 out to next, kept on run-in, not pace of winner

Buckstruther close up, led 7th to 3 out, weakened from next

Toms Party in touch, driven and outpaced halfway, plugged on from 2 out, never dangerous

Jendali Lad close up to 4 out, soon weakened

Wild Chimes in touch to halfway, tailed off

Spivitus not fluent, soon well behind, lost touch and pulled up before 4 out




Analyis of the race

OUZBECK was sent off at cramped odds to supplement his Bangor debut success over fences and his supporters had little to be anxious about throughout this race. A former useful hurdler, he jumps fences like a buck and, winging his way into the lead two out, still on a tight rein, he soon put some daylight between himself and his rivals and won with plenty to spare. He can continue to progress.

Tom's Party, a hunter chaser, had plenty on his plate on only his second try over regulation fences.
