Analyis of the race

The time was nothing special but this could have been a reasonable maiden for the course and there was plenty to like about the winner ANGEL ROCK. He had shown promise in his only start at Doncaster last season when sixth to Kandahar Run when trainedby Peter Chapple-Hyam and had broken his pelvis but he looked a nice sort beforehand and that was confirmed in the race. He was still last turning in but, once switched towards the centre, really found his stride and, despite showing signs of inexperience and feeling the ground, kept on strongly to get up in the final stride. He can only improve for this run and can be seen in a much better light on easier ground.

Skycap was held up in mid-division on his debut but quickened up to lead over 2f outand looked to have the race in the bag until caught in the last stride. He obviously made a pleasing debut and he can soon go one better.

Capstan was close up from the start and was a little keen before going on over 3f out but his lead was short-lived and he could only keep on at the same pace in the closing stages. He is handicapped now and he can be placed to good effect at the level provided he learns to settle a little better.

Spider Silk showed a little bit of ability and is another who can do better when handicapped and Colourful Move made the early running but could only keep on at one pace in the closing stages but at least should improve for the run.
