There were plenty of runners, but it waasn't one of the strongest juvenile races for this track and they did not blaze away over this trip.
DARK MISCHIEF justified strong market support, making the most of a rail-side draw to make all. He was green under pressure in the final furlong but still held on comfortably and there should be more to come. Whilethere is plenty of stamina on the dam's side, connections pointed out that he looked like his sire Namid and looks to have his speed as well, with Dane O'Neill reporting that 5f would not catch him out.
Green Beret battled on for strong pressure in the final furlong to win a separate race for second. This half-brother to useful sprinter Tax Free does not look quite such a flying machine.
Soul City found it all happening to quickly for him but was staying on when it was all over. He will be sharper next time and should soon be winning.
Blusher showed good all-round speed but had experience on his side after her 5f debut last month.
They finished strung out behind, but Yeoman Blaze shaped with promise under tender handling and the slow-starting pair Mr Willis and Super Fourteen, who was also badly drawn, showed more promise than the bare form. The latter, who was switched to the stands' rail at the back, ran green before showing he was getting the idea in the final furlong.
