Foreign Rhythm, who was wearing a first-time visor, ran above herself, or at least ran above her rating, in giving the winner plenty to think about. Miss Taboo kept on well to finish right on the premises. Rated only 48, her close proximity tells you plenty about the overall quality of this race. Mrs Bun claimed fourth place and is now qualified for handicaps.
Of the others, newcomer Molly Two showed a fair bit of dash until fading from over a furlong out. She can be made fitter yet and, with further experience, may beable to do much better.
