Analyis of the race

Two NH Flat race seconds and a dual point-to-point winner made this bumper potentially more competitive than the numbers and the time of year might suggest, though they did not go a great pace.

ANOTHER MOMENT had certainly shown the ability to wina race on his two previous outings and, though he raced keenly, he made headway from 3f out and led 1f out to score in workmanlike fashion, holding on despite edging right late on. He looks still to be learning the game.

Successful point-to-pointer Star Lord looked even more in need of the experience on this debut under rules, as he edged right when leading 3f out and rallied once headed 1f out. He should improve.

Makin A Fuss was outpaced from over 4f out but stayed on for a never-dangerous fourth ahead of Give Us A Gander, who could not find the pace to challenge.

Private Aye led to 3f out and weakened 1f out - he has yet to fulfil the promise of his debut.
