KYRIE ELEISON deserves credit for her win in that she was locked away at the back and got buffeted around as the sprint started. She still made good progress before running away from the whip both left and right to end up midtrack but in command in the last 100yds. She had looked to struggling off this mark recently and any rise will be a problem.
Mizooka had to waitfor a run through the pack and eventually switched to the far rail before staying on well. She continues to threaten a win but the handicapper has raised her in defeat already.
Fair Gale also looks to struggle to stay this trip as his run flattened out in the final furlong but Quinzey's Best, who did not look happy on the ground, plugged on late down the midtrack outside in the wake of the winner to show a little more than in her first three career runs.
