Gordonsville did not get the best of runs but finished well and this improved effort suggests his turn may not be far away.
La Vecchia Scuola has run a good race under a penalty, particularly as things did not really pan out for her. She kept on well and will have more to offer.
Whispering Death, a former stable companion of the winner, wants further so this was not a bad seasonal return.
Nero West had every chance but prefers an easier surface than he encountered here.
