Analyis of the race

A pleasing debut performance from MAIN AIM in this maiden where they all finished well spread out in the end which suggests the bare form is pretty solid. The winner was a bit free early on but was settled right at the back before showing a good attitude to come through and win with a bit more up his sleeve than the official distance indicates. He looks a nice prospect for the future and there is probably a few decent prizes in him before the season ends.

Carniolan set the standard of those that we had seen beforehand, as he had shown more than enough to win a race like this in his previous two outings. He saw off all the others well but could not withstand the winner. One of these will surely come his way.

Polmaily came into the race with a mark of 78 and was well beaten in the end so the handicapper has something to work off when rating the others.
