Borasco made all, quickened clear over 2f out, ran on strongly, very readily
Yamal dwelt, soon mid-division, effort over 2f out, went 2nd over 1f out, no chance with winner
Young Gladiator tracked leaders, went 2nd over 2f out, stayed on same pace
Irving Place switched right after start, held up, headway on inside over 2f out, kept on, never near leaders
Earlsmedic took keen hold in midfield, not clear run over 2f out, kept on steadily final furlong
La Fortalesa mid-division, effort over 2f out, lost place over 1f out
Lady Benjamin chased leaders, lost place over 1f out
Baronovici took keen hold on outer, steadied, eased inside and dropped back 4f out, no chance after
Strictly Elsie dwelt, in rear and pushed along, never on terms
Berrymead tracked leaders, took keen hold, hung left, weakened 2f out, soon behind
Bertie Vista chased leaders on outer, lost place over 2f out
Shanafarahan dwelt, soon tracking leaders, hung ledft and lost place over 2f out, soon behind and eased
Young Gladiator made headway with Yamal over a furlong out. He looks worth another try over this longer trip, although he again did not look the easiest of rides.
Earlsmedic has hinted that therecould be more to come in his runs that qualified him for a handicap mark. Although he was a bit keen early on, he looked like there may have been a bit left in the tank at the end. He could be one to keep a close eye on.
