Analyis of the race

Nine of these had won or finished in the frame in their previous two starts, so this looked a race that would take plenty of winning. Again, the riders were unsure as to which route to take, although the five who went the far side battled it out at the finish.

SELECT COMMITTEE has been disappointing this year, but the application of blinkers did the trick here as he posted a first win. Whether they will have the same effect next time remains to be seen.

Rio Sands has been going well recently. He was wandering around a bit late on though, and looked to collide with the rails.

Cheshire Rose lost momentum after finding herself slightly short of room and may well have finished closer with a clear run.

Mayoman was having just his second start here and he still looked a bit green, while Well Informed blew his chance when jumping away slowly.
