Royal Dignitary made all, shaken up over 3f out, edged right over 1f out, stayed on
Efidium soon chasing leaders, kept on same pace approaching final furlong, no impression
Inside Story chased leaders, ridden over 2f out, kept on same pace
Grand Opera dwelt, soon chasing winner, one pace approaching final furlong
Neon Blue held up in rear, effort over 2f out, soon ridden, one pace
Sir Bond slowly into stride, soon chasing leaders, one pace final 2f
Bretwalda with leaders, took keen hold, lost place over 2f out, soon behind
Calza Di Seta soon chasing leaders, lost place 3f out, soon behind
Efidium was dropping in trip but showed the pace to cope with it, soon in touch and travelling well for a long way, but he could find only one pace in the final 1f - this was a decent effort at the weights but he is likely to do at least as well returned to further. Inside Story also ran creditably over a trip which might have been thought too sharp for him but is another likely to do as well when stepped back up in distance.
