Analyis of the race

Unlike the good beginners' chase earlier, this looked shy of its grade and the two eldest runners filled the first two places.

The fourth-last was omitted with an injured rider receiving attention.

There was another good pace with Urban Tiger and Follow Your Heart dicing up front and that suited ANNIE FLEETWOOD, who was dropping back a shade in trip.

She galloped clear from the last but might have had luck on her side as Zorro De La Vega had loomed up two out, only to take off early and pitch badly and slip on landing. He could not recover but he was never the most resolute and hung in behind the runner-up under pressure up the run-in.
