LOVEINANELEVATOR has a mark of 68 and that just about sums the race up. He was having his seventh try and shaped as another furlong would not go amiss as it was not until close home that he got his head in front.
Bahamian Kid may well have handed it to the winner as he jinked right and left and then hung when asked to go and win his race. A pair of blinkers might help his cause
