Analyis of the race

A tight finish to this auction maiden, with the newcomer LAAHIG getting up in the final stride to nail the favourite Sloop Johnb. The winner, who lost ground at the start and was forced to come from an unpromising position, produced a finishing flourish to take the honours by a nose. He can improve further with this experience.

Sloop Johnb appeared to run lazily in the front rank and was inclined to prick his ears once in front. Although his jockey was well aware that his mount was green and idling, and rousted him accordingly, he was nailed on the stick.
