Analyis of the race

Only a modest handicap and BLUE TOMATO dug deep to get the better of the runner-up. He had not really sparkled since making a winning seasonal debut but was back to his best here.

My Gacho gave the winner plenty to think about and this was hisbest race for some time. He is on a handy mark.

Rainbow Fox ran well again but just seems to find one or two too good.

Avertuoso showed good speed and will be interesting back over five furlongs.

Curtail was never able to get in a blow but gave a bit more encouragement than on his previous start.
