Analyis of the race

A claimer that will mean very little outside of this low grade.

OGRE came into the race on the back of two wins in similar company and made it a hat-trick in all out fashion as she was forced to pull out all the stops to see off stablemate Wizby with the pair well clear of the others. The winner had a great chance on official figures so there absolutely no surprise in her collecting again.

The runner-up had something to find on official figures, so she should be found a winning opportunity in this sort of grade in the near future as she has been knocking on the door recently.

The Gaikwar was dropping back to this class as he is finding things difficult at the age of nine despite a slip down the ratings.
