Swinging Sixties made all, ridden 2f out, stayed on well, readily
Amanjena took keen hold, chased winner throughout, ridden 3f out, kept on same pace under pressure final 2f
Ellemujie steadied start, held up towards rear, headway over 4f out, chased leaders and ridden 3f out, kept on same pace from over 2f out
Mega Watt held up in last trio, headway on outer over 2f out, driven and kept on same pace from over 1f out
No To Trident took keen hold, held up in touch, driven and unable to quicken over 2f out, kept on same pace
Maxwil steadied start, held up in last trio, headway 3f out, driven 2f out, no progress from over 1f out
Higgy´s Boy held up behind, ridden 4f out, never going pace to threaten leaders
Meydan Dubai held up in midfield, lost place and pushed along 4f out, well held when edged right entering final furlong
Porthole stumbled start and slowly into stride, soon in touch, driven 3f out, weakened 2f out, well beaten when hampered entering final furlong, virtually pulled up after
Hilbre Court chased leaders, ridden over 3f out, weakened quickly over 2f out, virtually pulled up inside final furlong
Having got caught behind horses off a slow pace on loose ground, he failed to shine, but allowed to bowl along, he ground out what was ultimately a clearcut win. He momentarily looked vulnerable when going into the final 3f, but he stretched clear through the final furlong to suggest he will have no problem with 12f in time.He remains an unexposed progressive sortwith physical scope, suggesting he can win one of the bigger handicaps this summer if the ground remains in his favour.
Ellemujie added another placing, and possibly produced his best run yet. He still does not impress as a strong stayer over this trip.Mega Watt was another who struggled to see out this longer trip after moving up midtrack in the straight.
