Macdillon took keen hold early, tracked leaders, driven to lead just inside final furlong, held on all out
Kingship Spirit held up in rear, steady headway from 2f out, driven and stayed on to go 2nd inside final furlong, closing on winner near finish but always just held
Pocket´s Pick led, ridden over 1f out, headed just inside final furlong, soon on pace
Red Rossini chased leader until over 1f out, weakened inside final furlong
Mattamia chased leaders, ridden halfway, weakened over 1f out
Verlegen chased leaders, ridden 2f out, weakened final furlong
Goldvil towards rear, headway halfway, never going pace to to reach leaders and weakened over 1f out
Rocket Rob slowly into stride, in rear, some headway from over 1f out, never in contention
Mean Mr Mustard slowly into stride, took keen hold early, always outpaced
Russian Art ridden halfway, always outpaced
Rapanui Belle always outpaced
Kingship Spirit, again well backed, was given a patient ride and although he made up plenty ofground late on, he never looked like reeling in the winner, who ran around a bit near the line.
Red Rossini was another who raced prominently. He came up against a good thing last time, but appeared not to have improved a great deal for that first outing. Stablemate Verlegen is unlikely to be among her trainer's better juveniles, having failed to build on her debut outing in two subsequent starts.
The draw would not have helped the newcomer Goldvil, who should come on for the outing. Rocket Rob was another who had a difficult draw to overcome on his first start, but he made life even tougher for himself when jumping away slowly. Mean Mr Mustard was not beaten up and it would be no surprise to see him give a better account of himself at some stage.
