Analyis of the race

This time they came pretty much down the middle of the track, although MANDELIEU ended up back towards the far rail after edging that way in the lead, which he had taken up around a furlong from home. He was quite keen again early on, but the longer trip was not a problem and he looked good value for his win.

Magical Speedfit won here over 5f on firm ground early in the year but took a long time to hit top gear this time and only ran on late for second.

The prospects of Warwick winner Arabian Art had been boosted by the subsequent handicap win of the second, but she had no excuse this time, other than perhaps the loose ground, as it had been firm when she won.

The first four were clear of Tadalvil, who was the first beaten, and Rough Rock, who showed speed but weakened well over a furlong out.

Kevin Ghunowa reported Spic 'N Span lost his front right shoe.
